The Humble Store is a platform that consistently gives great discounts and free games even. PC gamers have come to love the platform, and of course, there is a free game for the month of September. The latest free offering is The Endless Space Collection, a turn-based strategy game developed by AMPLITUDE Studios. This deal is brought to PC gamers by Humble’s End Of Summer Sale. It’s just about over so now’s the time to pick up this amazing collection.
The collection includes the base game along with a pretty serviceable expansion. If you enjoy space exploration and spanning the galaxy for supreme domination, this game is right up your alley. The story surrounding this game is pretty captivating. Before everything, there were the Endless. They were the first signs of intelligent life. They are now extinct and the only thing left of their remains is something called Dust. It’s a substance that can give those who come in contact with it great power. Thus, everyone in the galaxy is seeking out this coveted substance.
You’ll have the chance to lead one of eight civilizations to galactic domination. There is a lot of pressure put upon your character’s shoulders. Do you have what it takes to explore the vastness of space all while keeping your civilization positioned to come out on top in epic space battles? That’s what you’ll get discover in The Endless Space Collection.
As mentioned earlier, the game’s combat has a turn-based design. You’ll spend a lot of your time recruiting generals and planning out space battles. There are plenty of combinations as far as which ships and military tactics to utilize. Do you play the long game and try to sustain everything you’ve acquired, or do you take a more direct approach to battle? The choice is completely up to you.
You’ll have the chance to play up to seven opponents online, where you can engage in battle or join allegiances. The latter will prove helpful as you slowly get closer to reaching the Dust. The variety of galaxies and planets you’ll have to explore is downright insane. Thus, the game has exceptional replayability. No two combat situations are alike. A lot of strategy is involved as well that will keep you on the edge of your seat.
The Endless Space Collection is a great game for its price point. Thanks to Humble’s generosity, you won’t have to spend a dime.
