What players think
The recurring themes across 300 analysed reviews: what players praise, what divides them, and what to know.
The gameplay is engaging, and the graphics, while 15 years old and so naturally not up to today's standards, still look pretty good, with especially good animation quality.

Like most management sims, the game is basically a quest for profit, but it never feels like you're playing a spreadsheet.
The sound is a plus, with good voice acting and aliens all speaking their own variety of simlish.
The game does a good job of easing you into the interface, which at first glance seems a bit hard to comprehend.
Despite the flawed campaign, the missions themselves are fun, with just the right degree of difficulty and the overall experience is good if you enjoy the genre.
Theme by theme
Every theme is scored by what reviewers actually said about it, not just whether they recommended the game.
Ranked by how many sampled reviews mention each topic. A topic sits in a column by what reviewers said about that topic; the percentage beside it is how many of them recommended the game anyway. One more theme was raised by fewer than 6 sampled reviews and is not shown.
