Space Empires V is a 4X turn based space strategy game by Malfador Machinations and is the fifth game in its Space Empires series. The game retains many races and technologies from its predecessor, Space Empires IV.

Reviews have been mixed - several have complained that the game is over-complex and overloads the player with options, especially while setting up a new game, and that it may not be suitable for players who are new to 4X games.^[1][2][3][4]
