GameVortex reviews Entrenchment: 95%
"From the first moment I touched Sins of a Solar Empire, I knew it was a very awesome game that was going to set a high standard in not only its genre, but in gameplay et al. I was happy to see that I was not alone in this thought, as it has raked in accolade after accolade, and not a bit of it goes undeserved. Now we have a much appreciated addition to the original game with the expansion Sins of a Solar Empire: Entrenchment."

 Entrenchment Earns Editor's Choice from IGN.com
"Last year's Sins of a Solar Empire was an undeniably amazing experience; so much so, in fact, that it won our game of the year award. But that doesn't mean that the teams at Ironclad or Stardock are resting on their laurels. They've recently released the first micro-expansion for the game, Sins of a Solar Empire: Entrenchment. Featuring some compelling new defense oriented additions, numerous gameplay tweaks, and a ten-dollar price tag, it's a guaranteed way to extend the fun and flexibility of the Sins of a Solar Empire experience.

GaneZone rates Entrenchment 8.7
"Sins of a Solar Empire successfully did what other games have tried for years to do. The developers were able to merge the strategy of 4X games with the instant gratification of RTS games. Sins of a Solar Empire became a huge hit with its vast gameplay options and its highly addictive nature. It was only a matter of time before an expansion pack was released, which is entitled Entrenchment ... The biggest and most talked about upgrade is the new star bases. These new bases will make players quake in fear if they run into them by accident." -Michael Knutson
