Building a space empire in SLIPWAYS, one trade route at a time

- Andy Kelly

Every strategy game or management sim I play, the same thing happens. I love it at first, but then my city, space empire, civilization, or whatever it is grows to a certain size, and the micromanagement becomes unbearable. The joy is sucked out of the experience and I quit, destined never to finish a game.

I’ve lost count of how many abandoned empires are sitting in my Steam cloud saves, destined never to be completed. So when I heard about Slipways, a new strategy game that lets you build a space empire without the busywork or time investment, I felt like someone had made a game specifically for me.
