What Endless Space is
Endless Space is a strategy game developed by Amplitude Studios and released in 2012. It is available on PC (Microsoft Windows) only.
The premise, in the publisher's words
Endless Space is a 4X turn-based strategy video game developed by Amplitude Studios and originally published by Iceberg Interactive. It was released on 4 July 2012, for Microsoft Windows and 31 August for Mac OS X. In the game, the player takes charge of fictional Space Age civilizations, expanding their influence by colonization and conquest. Endless Space earned the Unity Golden Cube award in 2013. The game's sequel, Endless Space 2, was released in 2017.

How it was received

What you need to run it
The minimum specification calls for Core 2 Duo Processor or Equivalent, 2 GB RAM and 256 MB DX9 Compliant. At 2GB of RAM, it will run on essentially any working PC — that is below what a budget laptop ships with today. Install size is roughly 2GB. Both tiers are compared side by side on the requirements page, and you can check your own parts against them without installing anything.
