About the Game

Tired of RTS games that demand your entire evening and/or your entire wallet?

Orion Wars delivers the strategic depth you crave in quick 10-25 minute sessions. Perfect for a lunch break, challenger queue times, between meetings, or when you want "just one more game" without losing sleep.  At just $4.99, Orion Wars delivers RTS depth without the time commitment or the $40 price tag.

Real strategy without the complexity
Most RTS games overwhelm you with hundreds of units and endless tech trees. Orion Wars gives you just two unit types but plenty of strategic possibilities. Easy to learn, impossible to master.

Battles that respect your time
Command massive fleets of hundreds or thousands of units in real-time combat that actually ends. No more 3-hour slogs. Jump in, execute your strategy, and claim victory (or learn from defeat) in minutes.

Two paths to victory 
Total Domination: Crush every enemy system with overwhelming force
Singularity Ascension: Out research your opponents and transcend to a higher plane
Your strategy, your playstyle.  Both paths reward tactical thinking.

KEY FEATURES
✓ 10-25 minute matches - RTS for humans with lives
✓ Simple controls, deep strategy - two unit types, infinite tactics
✓ Massive real-time battles - hundreds to thousands of units on screen
