✦ AI summary

Solaris is an engrossing turn-based strategy game that rewards deep planning and keeps players engaged across matches that unfold over days, with cross-platform mobile play making it ideal for casual engagement throughout the day. Players praise the balanced gameplay, strong community, and flexible difficulty that works for both serious strategists and casual players, though the interface can be confusing and unintuitive for newcomers, requiring patience with tutorials to grasp the mechanics.

Fun strategy game that I'm usually playing on my browser or phone in spare time. The game has a great community around it as well

I've played a lot of Neptune Pride games before I played Solaris, similar strategy and master planning. Cutthroat game and can get intense, and the strategy can be deep if you want it too or just be casual player and enjoy the ride. Overall if you like simple strategy games you'll like Solaris. Peaceout!

played quite a bit on my phone its a fun game matches can last a couple weeks its a great game to play throughout the day rather than all 1 sitting. may take a bit to get used to but its fun and easier when you learn it. it also connects your account to phone i play this at work so it makes it so much easier. honestly underrated.

Before downloading the game I was averaging 7 hours of sleep a night. After downloading the game I drink 3 cups of coffee a day to get me through. Would not recommend but would definitely recommend. Not a flashy game but holy cow is it a balanced strategy game that will suck you in if its your thing like a desolate black hole

Unsure what to do. I did not manage to pass the first level of tutorial. I don't see where the planets are, i only see stars. Nothing is logical. Civilisation are set on planet, not on stars. The interface is not very intuitive. At some point, I manage to fill in a carrier with some ships, sent it to a nearby planet and then unsure what happened, the ships were just gone. I watch the embeded YT tuto, the guy talks, talks.... talks..., move his pointer in circle on the screen, well, go straight to the point, another hour wasted trying to understand how it all works,

Games like Remember Me, for the memory remix more than the city

Games like Remember Me, picked for the Memory Remix rather than the neon: minds you can break into, a vertical city to climb, and combos you build yourself.

Games like Noita, where the physics is the real enemy

Games like Noita for the two things it really does: spells you assemble yourself, and a simulated world that takes nobody's side. Seven picks, from a slugcat to a dwarf fortress.

Tormented Souls price: a horror game that stopped moving

The Tormented Souls price has not budged in six weeks of our readings. What that means for buying it, and whether the 2025 sequel is the better purchase instead.

Control Resonant sale: the price band broke this week

The first Control Resonant sale since launch landed on 2 November. Our 36 readings before it never left an eight per cent band, which says something about waiting.
