Auralux is a gorgeous new take on Real Time Strategy gaming. It is simple and quick (I always play speed mode) and so intuitive. The object of the game is to defeat all enemy players by, well… killing their pretty little dots with your pretty little dots. The developers have done a really great job of abstracting the essence of RTS gaming into this sleek game that has helped me pass many a long bus ride.

So if you are in possession of an Android, Apple, or Windows mobile device, I really recommend you give Auralux a try. The free version has three maps that’ll get you started – and hooked – on total interstellar domination.

The more I think about this game, the more I’m seeing a connection to life’s grander frame. As they say on their site, “Quick reflexes will get you nowhere. The only path to victory is through clever strategy.”
