SteamFirst: It’s no secret that outer space is the unofficial home of the grand strategy genre. In terms of setting, it embodies all of the core elements of a 4X game. Its undiscovered frontiers are a thrill to explore. It’s endlessly expansive. Alien worlds are full of resources to exploit, and there’s no shortage of foes to exterminate. Praxia Entertainment’s Beyond Sol takes all of these things and runs with them, while also injecting a healthy dose of action and RTS elements into the mix. The end result is a fairly solid strategy title on Early Access that shows a lot of potential, even if it isn’t yet as fully fleshed out as it should be.
Gaming Precision's staff writer and game reviewer Bunneh3000 reviews Beyond Sol
From Cinelinx:
There's a deluge of various strategy games on the market right now (which has me all kinds of excited), but it's hard to decipher what's worth picking up and devoting time to. Beyond Sol is interesting in that it's more than a strategy sim and incorporates elements of one-on-one combat action, city building, RTS, and the randomness of procedurally generated maps. No player will likely go through the game in the same way, and perhaps, that's the most exciting aspect of this strategy title.
Baden of WGB: "There are some days when I sit in front of the keyboard preparing to begin typing yet another hideously deformed review and simply cannot think of anything to say in the intro that will segue me into actually talking properly about the game. This is one of those days, and thus I present to you some words; piffle, squiddle, squash, waffle and hornswaggle. Now let’s get on with this review, eh?"
