Overlooked space strategy game inspired by Stellaris is now cheaper than ever
For the sake of argument, let's say you were more than a little disappointed with Civilization 7. You're waiting for the new season of Stellaris. Manor Lords updates are still in the works. Cities Skylines 2...isn't there yet. Essentially, there's a good chance that a strategy-game-shaped gulf has appeared in your life - there are a lot of solid choices out there, but perhaps you've worked through them all already. In that case, meet Ixion. Created by Bulwark, the studio behind Warhammer 40k Mechanicus, while it's not without its fans, it's also managed to slip under the mainstream radar. If you've not heard of it, or you've been waiting for a robust reason to play, Ixion is now cheaper than ever.
