The goal of the FreeOrion project is to build a great, open-source, space-set, turn based strategy game. You can learn more by reading the Vision Statement.

This is a community effort, and the project moves forward based on the motivation and contributions of those interested in making it a great game. Our forums are the center of activity where most or all discussion and decisions are made. If you want to get involved, learn about the project or contact the project contributors or leaders, the forums are the best way to do so.

The wiki also contains documentation and other information about the project, but may be difficult to nagivate to a newcomer.
