TLDR Stellaris is a 4x strategy game by Paradox, the developers of Crusader Kings 2 and Europa Universalis. Its gameplay and the storytelling are unique, the graphics look really nice. I love these kind of games, and as I'm short on money (am still in school), I can't afford this game. If are such a kind human-being and want to spent 30€ for the joy of an stranger on the internet, well here are the links:

Full request:

Hey! This is my first ever request and I actually feel weird asking strangers for $12 but that's how it works here I guess. English is not my mother tongue so expect some mistakes!

Introduction My name is Keith, I live in Singapore and I really love gaming. I currently am in my last year in tertiary education so I don't have a job or an income. In my freetime I mostly play video games, meet my friends or play piano. That's all about me, now onto the request.

Stellaris Stellaris is a "4x grand strategy game" published and developed by Paradox Interactive. They are well known for their strategy games. Europa Universalis, Crusader Kings, Hearts of Iron, Victoria: All great games by Paradox and the fans all love them. As these games were all in the past, they had to make a sci-fi game now. Stellaris takes place in a random galaxy with many many planets and solar systems.

You can create your empire/kingdom/whatever from the ground up: Choose a species, a starting planet, a symbol, your political system and much more.

Early game: Exploration of the solar system and other planets. Gaining resources etc.

Mid game: Here comes the fun. You discovered all the other empires and need to expand. Diplomacy, Creating fractions, Making allies, Colonizing planets, Starting a war.

End game: This is something special. In the late game of Stellaris, you are a big empire with a big army. Random events like an alien invasion decide your empire's future here.

Stellaris also features real time space battles, a LAN and Online multiplayer. While the gameplay takes place in a lot of menus, the real time space battles make it less sluggish.

Why I want to play it Stellaris is a Paradox game.

I both have played Europa Universalis 4 and Crusader Kings 2 (Well mostly CK2). The reason I like theses games is the storytelling and roleplaying. There is no campaign or story but the game itself tells a story. In CK2 you can create your own family and so you can tell your own stories in your head. With all the things you can adjust in Paradox games (names, political systems, symbols etc.) you can create a great story. That's why I love these games. I always imagine things while playing CK2. As example, in the very early game in CK2 I build a castle in one of my dutchies. When my character dies, and I continue to play his/her son/daughter, I always try to defend that castle and upgrade it, as if it's the family's legacy. I love this immersion. In Stellaris, you can do the exact same, but in space.

My favourite genre are actually strategy games. I loved (and still love) Civilization 5, The Settlers 5, Anno (the older ones), Star Wars Empire at War, CK2. Stellaris is a 4x grand strategy game, and I'm sure I would love it.

I have nothing to play right now and all big school projects/exams are done. I have plenty of time right now and I'd love to fill it with playing Stellaris.

Why I can't get it myself As I already said, I currently am in school and I don't have a job/income. A teenagers life is expensive lol and I really don't have that much money to spent. Books for the school aren't cheap either. I also have to save all my current cash (which isn't that much) to buy a new, mid-ranged phone - which I really need.

I don't know if I can even thank you enough if someone would get me the game. I would be in your fault and couldn't thank you enough! So, if there is any kind souls who would be willing to fulfil my request, please comment below this thread.

Ps: There is only 4 hours more before the sale of humble bundle disappears.
