Re: What du you think why this game lacks popularity?

A few reasons: 1) Some players think this game is a "rip off" or a "copycat" of Alpha Centauri, or heck even James Cameron's movie Avatar. They don't understand how it works. I always have to remind people that it's not a copycat in that "Pandora" is a greek name, so no...

Re: Pandora First Contact Wiki

Without a detailed manual I found the game impossible to play and completely gave up on it. I think it heavily depends on what games you have played before. If you know both Civilization (any part) and Master of Orion 2, you are well set to quickly understand how Pandora works. If you know neither ...

Re: Pandora First Contact Wiki

Re: Can anyone offer some guidance to a rookie?

I understand your frustration. This game can be absolutely overwhelming. You stated that you feel that there's way too many tasks to be focused on at one time. If you're getting overwhelmed with enemy factions, during the learning phase of the game, use a bigger map with HIGHER than average alien ag...
