Stars Beyond Reach Trailers

This trailer features a first look at gameplay from Stars Beyond Reach, a sci-fi 4X strategy game, and Arcen Games also now offers Stars Beyond Reach: Tales of Woe Part 1 of 3, kicking off a three-part animated series with a humorous take on the game. The game is expected to come within reach on June 5th for Windows, Linux, and OS X, and in the meantime, here's a description:

SBR takes place on a hostile world where you are the newcomer and you have to find your way among the 13 other established races. The game has a different approach to combat (eschewing the typical "units on tiles" model and instead using a completely "buildings on tiles" approach), carries inspirations from the citybuilding genre, and contains a hybrid set of victory conditions -- you can "dominate" each alien race militarily, diplomatically, economically, intellectually, or via entertainment or espionage.

Once you have dominated all surviving races via any of those 6 categories, you win the game. OR, there are four other victory paths that have nothing to do with the other races at all. Sure, they'll be friends or foes as you work toward these special endgames... but in these endgames, it is the planet itself that is your chief enemy.
