With the game mechanics of Sins of a Solar Empire you the ability to zoom in and out seamlessly with the mouse wheel taking you from a grand view of your empire down to a micro level where you can watch and control space ships in battle or manage your planets/asteroids. This works flawlessly and moving from one end of your empire to another can be done in a snap. The graphics are also nicely done, both ships, space structures and planets are nicely modeled showing off some great detail the closer you zoom in.

Bottom Line

The game does lack a single player campaign but single and multiplayer campaigns play out so well it's not really missed. The excellent game play, interface, and graphics all combine to make Sins of a Solar Empire one of the top strategy games and an all around excellent PC game.
