Some stars are quite difficult to swallow though, so you'll have to be clever with your approach.
The campaign allows for different styles of play.Clever players will find a way to lure stars into attacking one another, while others will create a massive army capable of conquering anything.
What a tale to be told
There's more than just clever gameplay to be had here though. The narrative is incredibly interesting, and is drip-fed to you as you complete each level.
