Evaluation
4X-Galaxy is a free-to-play massively multiplayer online game that launched on December 20, 2018. The game is built as a persistent online service: players interact in a shared, dynamic galaxy, the economy is entirely player-driven, and progression is tied to a recurring monthly subscription card system. The store description explicitly states that additional roles and skillsets are still in development, and the game's structure — with rotating events, faction dynamics, and a living server economy — is characteristic of an indefinitely operated online game rather than a product with a defined content endpoint. The developer shipped multiple major updates in the months surrounding launch (October and November 2018, and the English server launch in December 2018), followed by a bug fix update in January 2019. The last recorded developer communication is from January 8, 2019. While the developer has been quiet since early 2019, the nature of the game as a live online service means it remains in active operation as long as the servers are running — and the game remains available for purchase today.

About this game
“4X-Galaxy” is a game developed by the 4X concept system.
Although "4X-Galaxy" can be played for free, you need to enroll for the monthly card system in order to get the full benefit of the game's features. There is no in-app purchase mall for points, points are earned during the game. The number of points earned depends on the player's skill, experience. and on good outcomes against other player's (adversaries) online.
The main difference from other games is that this game doesn't require you to accumulate points through a lot of playing time. Instead, you accumulate points through explorations, correctly answering quizzes, collecting and creating planets, business acumen, and plundering from other players. If you don't buy a monthly card, you can still play the game albeit without these features.
An example quiz; In addition to our solar system, how many galaxies are there in the whole universe?
Players can create, name and operate their own galaxy. Each galaxy in the game is created, named, and operated by the player. Absolutely unique. In the dynamic space world, a player’s behavior can affect the entire universe, triggering over 100 different events.
The game has five main character types, each with its own specialized skills and characteristics. With a fair degree of freedom, you can be transformed into any of the following characters:
A brave and fearless explorer
An interstellar pirate
A bounty hunter who defends justice
A skilled diplomat
A finance conscious businessman
There is a total of 48 roles and a range of 150 skillsets. Others are in development.
You need artillery to survive. In the game world economy, the price of artillery in the game depends on the players’ buying and selling behavior, and the law of supply and demand determines the game world's commodity prices. The game has a wide range of spaceships. All spaceships in the universe are made by the players themselves. There is a total of 36 ships, in six categories, available. They are:
Cruiser: A flexible long-range attack warship suitable for guerrilla warfare.
Battleship: A powerful and stable long-range warship for inflicting a lot of damage.
Assault ship: a flexible fast battleship suitable for assault operations.
Plunder ship: a highly defensive tough battleship, that can absorb a lot of damage
Exploration ship: This is the fastest. Used to explore unknown places in space.
Cargo ship: has the largest cargo space, suitable for traders.
You can build your own team of like-minded players and use the advantage of your team’s strength in the galaxy. But at the same time, beware of enemies hiding in the shadows, they will always attack you!
The law of the jungle reigns supreme, you, therefore, need to choose your partners wisely in order to survive. Your team’s ‘strength in unity’ is the key to conquering the galaxy.
Join the Universe Alliance and participate in an epic war. In the end, the unified universe will meet the alien civilization!
Under the multi-branch talent tree of the game, you can learn and upgrade your skills to improve your ability. You can choose to become a specialist in one area, or you can become an all-rounder
