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.

Re: Pandora First Contact Wiki

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.
