Our take on Annihilate The Spance
The defining constraint is that starships act on their own: individual commands are unavailable, so fleet movement relies on waypoint chains and broader decisions about production, composition, and positioning.
What is Annihilate The Spance?
Annihilate The Spance is a single-player real-time strategy game about building bases, managing an economy, and directing autonomous starships.
Units cannot be commanded individually; instead, waypoint chains guide fleets from shipyards while each vessel selects targets and attacks independently. Battles take place across an unrestricted vertical space, with ships ranging from small drones to capital vessels several kilometers long. The campaign contains more than 40 missions across four connected storylines, featuring multiple factions, bosses, new units, and technologies. Players can also fight AI opponents in skirmishes on custom maps. An in-game level editor supports creating and sharing scenarios. The setting centers on the Spance, a dangerous anomaly containing valuable resources and unexplained phenomena.
