About OGameDeveloped by Gameforge CEO Alexander Rösner and released on October 3, 2002, OGame is one of the longest-running sci-fi MMOs. Currently, over 100 million players are registered worldwide. It all starts with establishing a small colony on a previously uninhabited planet.

Using resources from their new home and their tactical skills, players build an empire, research new technologies, and construct an impressive war fleet. They expand their stellar empire by colonizing planets, forging tactical alliances, or engaging in space battles against other players. There are different lifeforms in the game that all have their own buildings and research. Players can select one of these four races (Humans, Rock’tal, Kaelesh, and Mecha) on each planet. Conquer alien galaxies in an unprecedented campaign and ascend as the most powerful ruler of the universe!

OGame is available in 24 languages: for Windows PCs via the Gameforge website and for mobile devices running Android or iOS via Google Play or the App Store, respectively.
