It mystifies me how I managed to get into (with the help of my dad) and ENJOY this when I was only 9 years old
Revisiting this 15 years later, getting into it is like trying to crack open a boulder with your head

Try playing Aurora if you want to crack your head against a boulder.
Alpha Centurai is actually a pretty intuitive and easy to learn example of its genre, compared to a lot of space 4x games. That's part of its mass appeal if anything. There are much deeper and strategic 4x games than this for sure, but none which seem to connect to so many.
