Our take on Interstellar Space: Genesis
The page presents reduced micromanagement as a goal, but it does not explain which management tasks are reduced. The game still covers colonies, resources, leaders, diplomacy, espionage, technology, culture, and tactical combat, so the scope is broader than that emphasis alone suggests.
What is Interstellar Space: Genesis?
