Wow.. Sector 724 seems to have flown right under the radar of everyone on Steam! I feel for the developer here, because this game has more going for it than a large number of the other titles that were release mid-April. There are a couple of other reviews here, but these are in Russian. So I thought I'd take the chance of purchasing this game at the low asking price to see if I can help out in the form of an English review.. Please note I am still learning the game, so will update this review as necessary the more I play and the more early access takes shape.. _____ Humanity has just discovered a mysterious substance known as SOR, which has lead to a scientific breakthrough in space ships gaining warp capability. The human race has now found their first colonisable planet in the far flung reaches of space. Sector 724. However, the Human Race is still bitterly divided, and every powerful Business Corporation that is capable of space flight is now in a bitter power struggle to obtain ...

I couldn't get past the strangeness of the combat mechanics. It certainly looks appealing in a screenshot but actually playing it was surprisingly not at all what I expected. I can't say I got much father than that before deciding it wasn't for me and refunding. This is one I'd DEFINITELY recommend watching a Youtube video of prior to purchase. It might be your thing, but wasn't mine.

this is a little known game it seems, but it is a pretty solid affair - a good space tug of war style hex based game, kind of boardgame like but with an added space battle section - the space battle section is simplistic and doesnt have alot in the way of tactics but itis real time and does afford some options, though this is a game really of attrition and masses and whoever has the best and most ships wins really, a good number ship design and upgrade options and some other elements thrown in for in game choices too, - for 6.99 this game is a definite worthwhile buy

I only paid less than 2$. I guess I'm still refunding. No tooltips. Random combat opponents. Crashed on me once already. Not a strong competitor for my leisure time.

Sadly, I cannot recommend this game. The strategical layer has relatively little depth other than balancing between growth and defense/offense, which in itself is very finnicky as it's extremely difficult to judge effectiveness of ship loadouts in any way. Part of the above, is the fact that during battle, whether missiles get shot down or not seems extremely random, and extremely impactful. If your enemy can deploy ships with bigger missiles than you, you're likely to lose a ship or two off the bat, and after that it's just several minutes of ships whittling each other down. There is also the technical problem of transition between menus/views taking as long as several seconds, which just adds to the frustration.

Technically bad game. Constant freezes and bugs greatly spoil the experience. Ship upgrades are interesting. But the scarcity of the combat component makes everything boring.
