Overview
FreeOrion is a free, Open Source, turn-based space empire and galactic conquest computer game.
FreeOrion is inspired by the tradition of the Master of Orion games, but does not try to be a clone or remake of that series or any other game. It builds on the classic 4X (eXplore, eXpand, eXploit and eXterminate) model.
By adding scripting capabilities to the game engine the FreeOrion project aims to give the community an easy way to customize the game mechanics and presentation to create a living, breathing universe in a grand campaign model.
