O.R.B.: Off-World Resource Base

About

O.R.B. throws you into a galactic struggle where two factions clash over scarce resources. You manage space-based bases, gathering materials from asteroids and planets to build fleets and unlock tech. Command individual ships or entire groups, using terrain to outmaneuver enemies in real time. The focus stays on logistics and positioning, with each decision tied to survival and expansion. Set against a fractured history of ancient empires, the game leans into tactical depth without overcomplicating systems. Players appreciate the emphasis on spatial strategy, where asteroid fields and orbital paths shape battles as much as raw numbers. Released in 2014, it runs on PC with support for solo and multiplayer modes. The lack of modern polish shows, but the core loop of base-building and fleet management holds up for those craving no-frills space combat.
