About the game

Once Upon The Universe is a god-game that takes you to the VERY beginning of creation. You begin the game just after the big bang, with nothing but an empty space and a lot of super hot hydrogen in the entire universe. Fill the universe with life and watch it thrive - or destory it.

    Very interesting and deep little game. Lots of depth that is not immediately apparent until you spend time with it.

    The game is skin and bones at the moment. Most of the things you can do don't matter and you constantly have to babysit the universe to keep it going. Civilizations progress really fast and you have no need to influence them in the slightest until they reach the space age. I am, however, looking forward to what the game developer has in store for the future.
