War For Galaxy

War For Galaxy is a cross-platform multiplayer open-world game about building planetary bases, commanding fleets and competing with other players. You develop your empire by gathering resources, researching technologies, constructing ships and expanding to new planets. You can cooperate with neighboring players or attack their planets for resources.

Build your base

Your planetary base is a fortress and a center for construction and research. It stores resources, unlocks new spaceship projects and supports your defenses. Build energy domes and laser cannons, and upgrade technologies to protect the base with your space fleet and ground defenses.

Build and command fleets

The dock is where you construct ships. The game has 15 types of ships, each with its own characteristics and purpose: warships with different armor levels and tactical weapons, scouts, transports, ships for exploring planets, collecting debris and stealing. You form flotillas and send them on missions.

Attacks on other players' planets cannot destroy or conquer them completely, but you can destroy their fleets and defenses and take their resources. You can send scouts ahead and plan a strategy before attacking. Fleets take time to reach their targets, with farther planets requiring longer flights; they can also run out of fuel, which may require a new plan.

When a fleet arrives, an alert on the bridge signals the start of battle. You can command the flotilla yourself, choose targets and use ships' special skills to increase damage to enemy ships and defenses. If you are offline, battles take place automatically and you receive a report afterward.

Trade and expand

You can sign a contract with pirates to bring the Marauder ship to your dock and raid neighbors for goods. For resource trading, the stock exchange lets you exchange resources for other resources; the game has no currency, and fuel is its most valuable resource.

Planet Exploration technology lets you send ships to uninhabited planets, establish colonies and keep them under the rule of your first planet. Developing this technology allows more planets to join your empire. You choose which planets to colonize; they vary in size and temperature, affecting how much of certain resources they produce.
