Orion’s Belt: Battle for Sirius finally in Open Beta [Orion's Belt]
Yesterday finally Orion´s Belt 2.0 was launched in Open Beta.
This is one of my favorite web game ever. It’s a Sci-fi MMO played in a browser. What makes him different are the battles: they are played in a board (similar to chess).
When I started playing Orion’s Belt (back in the first version) it striked me as a great game. Had it all: you could manage an empire and battle your opponents.
But Orion’s Belt also had one major difference to all the leading games in the market (like Travian or Ogame): you had to fight your own battles. That means that tactics are the most important thing (or one of the most important). In other words Orion’s Belt is different because it’s a trully tactical MMO where the battles are played like a chess game.
Since then I quited playing most web games due to lack of time. Orion’s Belt is still the one that I play (unfortunately not as much has I would like).
So if you liked it and feel like trying it, just follow my link to this great game. You’ll have a lots of fun. And it’s free.
Looks great that game. Is there any space battles?
Yes. All the battles take place in a board with 8×8 squares (similar to chess). You have different kind of units that move and have different characteristics (like attack, defense and some other special powers).
Like I said it’s very nice and it’s a lot of fun.
