"Patience, planning, and scale" - Riftborne is a sci-fi grand strategy game played through a text-based terminal interface.

This looks less like a GSG and more like a browser game like OGame.

How do you define a browser game? Do you mean a web app game that uses idle/incremental mechanics?

From my understanding, this is not an idle/incremental game.

And the UI is almost like a stylistic adaption or perhaps the only economically viable option.

I hesitate to adopt a label for game I haven't played but the Steam page and the article do mention a big focus on complex strategy and economic system.
