<strong>Aurora 4x Wiki</strong>

'''Aurora''' is a freeware, 4X space simulation game, designed by Steve Walmsley and released in 2004. Difficult to learn and slow to play, this is a game well-suited to people who like deep strategy and don't mind a non-optimized UI. It is constantly being [[changelog|updated]] and the latest version is v{{:Current_Version}}.

Below is work in progress to more closely align the wiki with the game flow and navigation (this line to be removed when completed)
