I've played the demo now, and yeah, you're right. Its like a combo paint-by-numbers and SimCity, and it doesn't seem like it will get much better.

I just stumbled across this post and have a couple of questions.
I used to get an email from Stardock announcing their "Weekend Sales". Since I haven't received one for this sale, I was wondering if they still do this?
Is Sword of Stars Ultimate really on sale? When I checked the sales in Impulse, it's NOT listed. Also, when I look at its' product page, the price is listed as $7.99. It's not listed as a sale price, but as the normal price. What's the story?
tap..tap..tap... Is this thing on?

hm... it seems that the Sword of the Stars demo only works on 32-bit OS's, so it doesn't work on my computer. Is this true of the game, too?

I got Ultimate over the weekend and ran it on my Vista 64 with no issues.
Thanks. Of course, because I waited its no longer on sale...

Well, if you really want the game I do think D2D has the same sale, and you can pre-order the combined Ultimate + the new expansion for something like $17. Maybe they didn't end theirs yet.
That's the only one with the discount. The actual ultimate bundle is $23. But the price here works out about the same.

It's pretty much the same price, Argos is I think $8 normally.

I've been trying the demo out and I'm not too sure about it yet. Great graphics and easy to play. But so far it's a bit like paint by numbers. I hope that's because the beginning is a tutorial of sorts.
You need 5 processors. So you click 5 spots for processors
You need power. Click spots until you have enough power.
But it's early so I'm hoping to get turned loose soon. There is talk of an upcoming sandbox mode though.
