Hyper Empire is a fast paced empire management game with auto battles set on the edge of space. Games are shorter so every decision matters and each turn can decide your fate. Take control of a diverse range of factions and lead them to victory. Use your wits, military might and infrastructure as you colonize planets and encounter rival factions. Fight, build, invest in faith or technology as you advance your way in a deep single player experience. The clock is ticking, and victory or defeat lies right around the corner.
Features
Lead one of five factions, each with unique ships and mechanics.
Build up your empire and assemble your fleet. Precious resources must be allocated carefully to succeed.
Combat plays fast using an auto-battle feature. Control the weapons of your carrier flagship as the frenetic battle plays out. Adapt your strategy as the conflicts escalate.
Multiple paths to victory. Will you dominate the galaxy through economy and trade, military might, or technological achievement? Or perhaps you will just try and outlast your enemies. You decide.
Random events can throw a wrench in your plans. Some will bring benefits, while others will pose mounting challenges to your people.
Trade routes can bring untold riches, but are constantly threatened by pirate raiders. How much are you willing to gamble on your trade fleet?
Recruit Heroes to further boost your empire.
Never the same game twice. With multiple factions, ways to win, random events, a variety of enemies and difficulty levels Hyper Empire is a unique play experience every time.
Victory or defeat is only the beginning. Unlocking achievements as you play will unlock new options and capital ships for your faction bringing more variety in future games.
Good luck Commander!
