About Star Control III
✦ AI summary
Rally alien races across the galaxy through strategic diplomacy and intergalactic warfare to prevent the universe's destruction in this epic finale to the Star Control saga. While it charted its own course from its predecessor, the game captivates with a gripping story, memorable characters, and a sophisticated diplomacy system that lets you solve problems your way.
Deep in space, somewhere in the Kessari Quadrant, you stumble across a catastrophic realization - the universe is on the brink of destruction. Now you must race to save thousands of worlds and billions of lives from total annihilation. An epic adventure of intergalactic strategy and diplomacy begins.
Star Control 3 is the last installment of the series. Taking a slightly different track that diverged from the Star Control 2 formula, it got excellent reviews though some of the hardcore Star Control fans weren't entirely thrilled by the innovations. Journalists, new fans of the series, and hardcore fans alike all agreed on one thing, though: this game's story is great.
So whether you're an old fan of the series, someone who was put off by a friend's dislike of the game, or someone who's never played the Star Control games at all, here's your chance: pick up the excellent final game in the Star Control series and make up your mind for yourself!

Pretty much the best release of StarControl, hands down, in my opinion. Exploration, conflict, hillarious situations, and of course, the UrQuan back again to make problems!1 found this helpful
9 year old me was so proud I figured this game out and beat it. It was one of the first PC games I played. I haven't tried the others Star Control games but I will! This one is a banger.1 found this helpful
This game would have been a complete failure without the previous Star Control 2. It massively capitalises and copy&pastes from his predecessor. It is bugged heavily and you can get stuck very easy. The only solution is a complete restart with no guarantee that you wont get stuck again because of ♥♥♥♥♥♥ scribted time dependant events. The colony building system doesn't work either, the new colonies don't produce anything at all even if you haul 100ks of RUs to them and build them up completely. Summary is this game should have never been released in this state at all and the bugs should have been fixed many years ago. It is just a waste of time and money. DON'T BUY THIS CRAP! Go play SC2 ot SC: Origins instead.1 found this helpful
I play hell starting this game due to Steam starting when you start the game! Clicking does noting until you close steam. Steam should of done better than this! Always having to login to play. I mean come on man!
more guess work than I like, but good story and characters. Glad I finally beat this after decades.
could have been better. still think 2 is the best but overall still great
