Official description
"Space is big. Really big." So begins The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy. But like the void of space, there is a void in strategic space games. None have provided the bigness, that focus on the highest levels of grand strategy, that science-fiction epics in print, film, and television have long delivered. So, to the traditional 4-X strategy game of eXplore, eXpand, eXploit, and eXterminate, we have added an important new fifth X, eXperience. Through game devices that add character, story, and plot to familiar strategy play mechanics, MOO3 delivers the grandeur and richness of an epic space opera--not in the guise of a traditional book, movie, or TV show, but in the medium of a game experience.
