From Vivendi Universal Games: Homeworld combines elements of space combat, strategic play, and action in a new gaming experience. This demo includes the first two missions from the full version and a step-by-step tutorial. In the first mission, command the massive mothership and begin construction of your fleet. In the second, learn to engage enemy craft in deep space on the 3D battlefield. Each victory brings you closer to Hiigra, your homeworld. The demo also features Skirmish mode, which allows you to practice your multiplayer skills against up to seven computer opponents.

Editor's review of Homeworld
One of the first forays of real-time strategy into a truly 3D world, Homeworld is an undisputed classic. The game's graphics aren't quite as polished as more recent 3D titles, but it's still easy to get lost in the seemingly endless world. The demo version comes with a generous amount of functionality, which is good considering the sizable install files. There's also a massive list of navigational and tactical controls to master, but the included tutorial files help. The varied tasks of the two included missions help keep the gameplay fresh. If you have the patience to learn the basics, the game's fascinating back story and dreamy soundtrack can easily whittle away the hours.
