Starium XCV is a game of survival, exploration and eventual dominance with thousands of other players set against an elaborate galactic setting of over one hundred thousand star systems and tens of thousands of computer controlled empires.

Shortly thereafter an unexpected discovery of alien spacefaring technology grants these colonies space faring capabilities. What happened to the Concordium? Why was there no word? Between these answers and the player is an unmapped and uncharted galaxy modeled after the Milky way filled with unknowns.
As players explore, they will discover many civilizations and races. Each with both racial and cultural details along with elaborate histories that help define how they act and react to both players and other computer-controlled empires.
Create federations and carve out empires. Create unique and detailed starships and military units. Develop unique technologies designed so that no two empires will be similar. Discover ancient ruins that hold secrets or discover wonders that help fuel your empire and federations quest for power. Drop spies, emissaries, and religious agents to watch your opposition and act when necessary to thwart the enemy in unexpected ways.
