Star Ruler<\/a> is a real-time 4x space strategy game being developed by Blind Mind Studios<\/a> where you control an interstellar empire in a hostile galaxy against a number of opponents. In a sort of context definition Blind Mind Studios Staff defines Star Ruler as: \u201cIt\u2019s slightly more RTS than 4X; it is most certainly way more 4X than SoaSE (Sins of a Solar Empire).<\/em>\u201c<\/p>\n

Some time ago, about 10 months to be more precise, I made a review<\/a> of Star Ruler. By then, as I then came to know, the game (although released) was actually still in “Beta” (at version 1.0.0.6). The review score turned out to come out a bit low because of that.\u00a0I came to realise that although released the game was in fact “half-done”, well maybe not at half state but still under heavy development. BMS released the game as “it was” because allegedly they run-out of funding to continue the development.<\/p>\n

And in fact BMS continued to improve Star Ruler. After a succession of patch releases the game should be now much more stable (and finished). With a physical box target release for 16th of September 2011 Star Ruler gains a new breath. You can download the latest demo (v1.0.8.0) from here<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Video games publisher Iceberg Interactive confirmed<\/a> that will publish a boxed version of\u00a0Star Ruler.<\/em> The game will be available in retail stores throughout Europe, Australia, South-East Asia and various other territories on 16 September 2011.\u00a0A fully localized German version will be on sale in German retail stores on the same date.<\/p>\n

For more information about Star Ruler checkout the SpaceSector’s Star Ruler overview<\/a> and review<\/a> (for v1.0.0.6) and the Blind Mind Studios website<\/a> and forums<\/a>.<\/p>\n

You can buy Star Ruler at\u00a0GamersGate<\/a> (digital download). If the game it’s not at present version you can update it in Blind Mind Studios patches <\/a>page.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
