The Last Federation Collection Steam CD Key
The Last Federation is a representative of the 4X cosmic strategy genre in which, as the last representative of one of the dying races, we must create the title federation. The game combines the need to take care of advanced economy with tactical skirmishes played in a turn-based system. The production was prepared by an independent studio Arcen Games, known for such titles as Bionic Dues , Skyward Collapse or AI Wars: Fleet Command .
Story
The action of the game takes place in a galaxy torn by conflicts, inhabited by 8 races, characterized by different attributes and personality traits. The player takes on the role of the last representative of a dying race that once ruled the entire system in a ruthless way. We start our adventure quite modestly, on board only one, experimental ship, stolen from a group of rebel robots. The goal of the game is to erase the sins of the ancestors and convince at least two races to each other in order to form a federation that will restore the old order in the galaxy.
Gameplay
The creators give players a lot of freedom in achieving the goal of the game. We can conduct our activities in many possible ways: openly or underground, militarily or diplomatically. After forming an alliance, we can strive to include other races to it, or try to erase them from the pages of galactic history by force. Each of the nations functioning in the game leads its own life, expanding the infrastructure, creating space armadas or conducting scientific research. The mutual relations between the races play an important role in the game. They may or may not like each other, cooperate or try to eliminate each other. Since the player does not have the ability to produce his own units, the key to success is the skillful use of these dependencies and close cooperation with the acquired allies. The gameplay itself takes place at a relatively slow pace and due to the high degree of complexity it is intended rather for advanced players. The tedious building of relationships with other nations can be very easily destroyed by one careless move, such as, for example, simultaneous cooperation with two hating races. In addition, each of the planets in the game is described by a huge variety of parameters, the most important of which are economy, health, the environment and public order. The role of the player is to constantly control them and ensure that the level of individual indicators does not fall below the level from which it is impossible to recover. An additional difficulty is the relatively frequent random events, such as crises, strikes or a demographic boom.
