Reception

Computer Game Review was unimpressed with the game, writing, "For a game called Exploration, there's really not a whole lot to explore." [2] William R. Trotter of PC Gamer US was more positive: there is "nothing new here, but if you haven't burned out on colonization games, it's a good time", he wrote. [1]
