What Xterium is
Xterium is a browser and mobile space MMO strategy in the 4X genre (eXplore, eXpand, eXploit, eXterminate). Players develop empires across hundreds of planets, research technologies, build fleets, and join alliances to fight for galactic control.
The project launched in 2013 and keeps evolving. Xterium has three universes with different balance and pace: War of Alliances (flagship), Classic (slow-paced traditional) and Reborn (seasonal fast-pace).
