A downloadable game for Windows, macOS, Linux, and Android

Stellar Forces is a free online multiplayer turn-based strategy game. Take control of your elite squad and defeat your opponents in one of over 100 different missions. Join games that are waiting for an opponent or start your own, then equip your units and away you go. All your units are under your control and they can move, shoot and use equipment, whether it's on an barren planet, space station, alien-infested moonbase or overrun by zombies.  No two games are ever the same.
