Stellar impact is free-to-play game with pay-to-play possibility. It is 3D Sci-fi themed match-based MMORTS set in the Space Opera universe. Stellar Impact stands between RTS and MOBA/DotA games. It is developed by Tindalos Interactive and published by the same company.

The war between the Allies and the Axis has moved to space and players will command their space battleships in intense tactical combats with teammates. Players can choose between several ship classes. Players can make own skills templates according to their preferences: attack, defense, speed and maneuverability or recon.

Ship Classes:
1.Corvette
- These ships are fast and easy to navigate. They are perfect for initiating swift attacks on large opposing vessels.

2.Frigate
-- This light-weight craft specializes in reconnaissance operations and is equipped with incredible radar range capabilities. Frigates are ideal for infiltrating enemy lines or escorting fleets.

3.Destroyer
-- Powerful mid-sized ships effective at striking enemies during rigorous battles. This class can annihilate multiple ships regardless of their size.

4.Cruiser
-- Considered as one of the largest vessels this ship has a reputation of withstanding high volumes of damage with no problems. It's an excellent spacecraft to have protecting other allied ships.

5.Dreadnought
-- This craft was designed to support coordinated attacks. Dreadnoughts are valued command ships that every faction should have on their side during combat.

Once players have selected their spacecraft they simply enter the lobby area to find an available match. There are no quests or single player practice options. Each match features a specific map and can have up to 12 players. Although the game features a nice selection of map modes there's not a structured match system implemented which leads to unbalanced teams that pin high level players against newbies.

The game features two battle modes:
1. Conquest Mode:
- The most commonly used is the Conquest mode. In this mode players are divided into teams and fight together to destroy their enemy's Starbase. The team that successfully destroys their opponent's stronghold first wins. The entire team earns a looting reward and each individual player receives experience from kills and captures.

2.Battlefield Mode:
- In the Battlefield mode it's all about taking out your opponents. The main objective in this match is to wipe out the opposition three consecutive times or occupy an objective for more than 120 seconds. The first team to do so automatically wins.


Controls:
- Players have to use their mouse to right-click on their desired location. Hitting the W or S keys will speed up or slow down the vessels' speed. Wherever a user clicks the vessel will travel directly there hitting into any objects in the set path. When an enemy is in sight players must left click to target the rival ship and press the space bar to fire weaponry. Spacecrafts must be facing the vessel in the appropriate direction enabling the cannons to accurately shoot for a successful assault.

Enviroment:
- Each environment or map is slightly different with obstacles scattered throughout the galaxy in the form of gigantic gas clouds, plasma storms, planets, bases, and asteroids. Players have to carefully select their ships passageways to avoid running into these obstacles. It's quite easy to get the ship destroyed by accidentally setting a course near some asteroids.

Strategy:
- Players will have to make tricky maneuvers, elaborate efficient strategies and most of all play collective if they want to be victorious. This strategy gives players quite a challenge. There are some obstacles like crystal fields can be captured generating extra escort ships. Capturing a planet on the battlefield also rewards users with bonus command points. During battles AI controlled escort ships randomly appear to help attack the opposing faction's Starbase. Players can shoot down their rival's automated fleets for additional XP. Experience points accumulated during combat can later be used to purchase various upgrades for vessels.

Skills:
- There are up to 20 different skills that can be unlocked and purchased as a player levels up their ships. Master the Quantum Leap or the Shockwave which sends 200 damage points to all ships within range. Each spacecraft is limited in the number of skills it can possess at a given time. The skills your rivals' ship is using remains concealed during combat. Only the first level of each ship can be upgraded with skills and add-ons. Premium users have access to cooler weaponry, ammunition, hulls, and skills. There's not much free users can do in terms of customization unless they switch over to a premium member.
