You are the captain of a space station suddenly stranded deep in unknown space.
Faced with alien threats and opportunities your survival depends on making keen trades with strange creatures and conducting sharp diplomacy with the rival factions they represent.
Their friendship, costly as it might be, will be vital to endure the dangers of ravaging pirates, rogue robots and even darker agents that lay poised to destroy you.
Your choices decide if you and your crew ever see Earth again, or will be forever marooned in the darkness.

"We had thought space to be dark and empty, a void without feeling and emotion. We were wrong. It is neither empty nor desolate, and it throbs with spite and betrayal." - Lt. Phoebe Freebs

No, Iter Caelis is not a free game. Yes, Iter Caelis is a singleplayer only game. Sometime between soon and later. Yes! Alpha is a very early version of the game which lacks many planned features. Beta is an almost complete, but very buggy, version of the game. Some features may be missing. Yes! Right here on the site! We will put it on Steam Greenlight and then we'll see. If we end up on Steam we will try our best to make sure you can redeem your copy. No, there are parts of the code that we do not have the license to distribute. Iter Caelis is not related to Gods and Idols, neither is taking dev-time away from the other.
