"The game is just fantastic! It's a lot of fun — it's light, admittedly, kind of in that micro-game world, but it is a really, really tough game to win. The strategy runs deep."
The Dice Tower
"Small Star Empires may well be a small game in size, duration and rulebook - but it comes up big in its own domain. It allows players enough options to implement area control, anticipation, and multiple scoring paths that are easy to remember."
Meople's Magazine
"Easy to learn, fun to play and games take about 20 minutes to complete. Add to that a modular board and you have the recipe for a great time at any game night!"
