Seizure Salad

It's one of those games that you either REALLY like for its real-time strategy element and just how free you are given the restraints of being an interstellar empire and its little mini-stories in the form of anomalies and archaeological sites, or one of those games you REALLY hate because of how slow it can be (and run, if you have a bad computer) and how difficult it can be to learn. I was tentative to invest time in it, given how I didn't really understand the controls, but now I play it almost daily and is one of my favorite games right now. Definitely pick it up when it's on sale.
