Battlestar Galactica Deadlock Reviews
Professional reviews from gaming critics
Battlestar Galactica: Deadlock serves a particular niche; it’s for people who are both strategy game fans and Battlestar Galactica fans. I don’t know how many of us are out there, but I hope there’s enough that the entire development team gets rewarded for the excellent work that they’ve done. Yes it’s a budget game and a really authentic Battlestar Galactic experience really should also have solo flight and ground missions, but as a complement to the overall franchise, I couldn’t ask for more. This game is brilliant.
Battlestar Galactica: Deadlock is a massive treat for fans of the franchise, but even if this is your first exposure to the universe, it’s well worth your money. It’s a sufficiently deep, extremely fun and good looking turn based space strategy game with fantastic combat and a content-rich campaign.
Along with the campaign mode, there is also a skirmish option focussed solely on combat, but without the resource management in between, this part of the game felt a little pointless to us. Still, generally speaking, Battlestar Galactica Deadlock is the kind of tie-in that fans of the series have been crying out for. It's a deep and interesting space combat strategy game with an excellent resource management element, and while it's definitely one for fans of the show, anyone who enjoys this kind of sci-fi strategy should check it out.

Battlestar Galactica Deadlock finally gives us a solid game based on the popular franchise. It doesn’t attempt anything new but some polish issues aside it’s a solid strategy game that does a good job of translating the feel of the show.
