Horizons

Players are leaders of starfaring civilizations expanding into a newly discovered cluster. They explore by drawing worlds, gather knowledge tokens, recruit allies, and place habitats, collectors, and colonies across star systems. On each turn a player takes two actions (can repeat actions) from options such as Explore (reveal a world and gain knowledge), Adapt (activate habitats or take an ally), Build (place collectors or colonies), Harvest (collect resources from collectors), or Conspire (draw missions and/or allies). The game ends when a player places their final colony, and scoring awards points for system control, unspent knowledge, and completed missions.
