You take the role of a creator guiding the Nuggets, a sentient species, as they grow from a small settlement into a civilization spanning the ages. Their survival and development depend on your direction.
Build and improve structures, manage resources and population needs, and research technological and societal advances. You can also use godlike powers to help your followers or disrupt their world as they face disasters, conflicts, and other threats.
As the civilization advances toward the Space Age, you can explore and colonize procedurally generated planets with different ecosystems and challenges. Your choices affect the balance of each world and the resources available to its inhabitants.
Among the supplied reviews that express enjoyment, players often praise the appeal of guiding a civilization through successive ages and watching its population develop. They also enjoy intervening with godlike powers, the humorous narrator, and the colorful presentation; some particularly like extending their civilization to other planets. Several positive reviewers say the experience is most engaging in its earlier stages, while others find later play repetitive or frustrating.
WHAT WOULD YOU DO WITH THE POWER?
🔵Play God!
Guide your fledgling sentient species (lovingly called “nuggets”) from Stone Age cave painters to star-faring explorers.
Command more than 15 godly powers to guide, protect — or discipline — your followers. Create devastating tornadoes, smite naughty followers with lightning bolts, or shake and sunder the very earth.
Observe Nuggets' every move as they work and fight to survive.
Research more than 200 technological and societal advancements.
Discover and colonize a galaxy of procedurally generated planets, each with unique ecosystems and challenges to conquer.
Manage the delicate balance of planetary ecosystems to help nuggets thrive. Your decisions and your followers’ ' actions influence global climates and have real environmental consequences. (Try not to kill them in an ecological disaster — well, unless you want to, of course.)
Unravel the layers of a deeper cosmic story that challenges your perception of who and what you are — and reveals unexpected twists!
The Universim is a strategy city builder game with “God” elements where you guide a civilization (Nuggets) from the Stone Age to the Space Age. Manage resources, dynamic challenges, and ensure your Nuggets can survive, thrive, and spread to the stars.
The Universim features more than 200 research perks that will help you to shape your civilization. Be as benevolent or malevolent as you like to drive nuggets to evolve, advance, and expand. (Even the best civilizations need an occasional smiting).
Every planet in The Universim is procedurally generated and offers unique characteristics and challenges, ensuring that every world and every game is unique and engaging. Ecological balance and resource management are critical to success. Nuggets have their own needs and behaviors you must attend to. Your guidance will shape how they deal with conflicts, natural disasters, alien creatures, and other civilizations. Their growth and evolution depends on you!
