If you love complex, hard to learn, horribly interfaced games, then Master of Orion 3 is perfect for you. The third installment of this classic series is almost enough to doom the franchise forever. I have been playing Master of Orion 3 off and on since its release and at times, I am still left wondering how this game made it past play-testing. As you might expect, you need a lot of information to run a galactic empire. Master of Orion 3 provides you with all of the information that you will need, however, it is scattered over a dozen different screens. Furthermore, I believe you are presented with too much information, which causes an undo amount of mental stress. For the most part, gamers who are fans of the series are crying fowl. Master of Orion 3 is nothing like its predecessors. The argument is not entirely valid, but does contain some merit. The game is not Master of Orion 2.5. On the same note it is not worthy of the title Master of Orion 3. If you are looking for a 4x space epic, I recommend you check out other titles like Space Empires 4 or Galactic Civilizations.
