Evaluation

Orbi Universo launched on January 10, 2020 and received a steady stream of major content updates over its first two years, adding new historical eras (Medieval, Discovery, Imperialism, Industrial, and Atomic ages) through regular patches. On January 10, 2022, the developer explicitly stated that the Atomic Age update would "probably be the last one of Orbi Universo" for new content, with the studio shifting focus to a new project called Legio Ad Signa. Despite this, the team followed through on one final piece of paid DLC — the Ad Astra expansion — which launched on October 17, 2022, extending gameplay into a space age. That DLC is the sole item in the DLC list and it is fully released. No further content for the base game has been announced or released since then. The developer's attention has fully moved on: on December 11, 2024, they announced a sequel (Orbi Universo II), and on July 31, 2025, that sequel officially launched. The original game's content development is complete, with October 17, 2022 representing the date the final content shipped.

About this game

Incarnate the leader of a civilization, from the Roman Empire to a Chinese dynasty, makes it prosper and stand the test of time.
Orbi Universo is a strategy/simulation game in which you manage your civilization with an abstract and complex node system and you make your society evolve through different periods, from cavemen to the Modern Era.

A Civilization encapsulated

Your civilization is defined by nodes, they are the abstract representation of what your civilization is. These nodes interact with each other and it's up to the player to add new ones or increase the importance of the already present one to evolve technologically or to choose a cultural and political path.

Choose the path of your people

Choose where you start and lead a civilization through time from their first days as a primal hunter-gatherer tribe to a glorious empire. But all civilizations have a unique feature that make their personality, so ride as Horde, rule as Emperor or lead as a Theocracy, the experimentation is never over!

Adapt to troubles

Experimentation can end in a nip in the bud due to natural disasters, envious neighbour or bloodthirsty barbarians! You need to reconsider your strategy with each new event and era.

Replay History

More than 30 challenges recreating historical settings like the Fall of Rome, the Sengoku Jidai or the French Revolution. This allows you to discover new ways of playing the game as well as some tough challenges for veteran players.

Moddable Experience

The structure of the game was designed to ease the creation and implementation of mods and can be expanded by you and the community at any moment!
