Hyperspace

Lead an asymmetric alien civilization competing to control a newly discovered star cluster. Players expand their empires by moving ships, building structures, harvesting resources, researching technologies, and engaging in combat and salvage operations. Each faction has distinct strengths and weaknesses that shape strategy as players advance on four victory tracks—Probe, Research, Industry, and Battle—to score points. The modular star-cluster map changes each playthrough, and turns consist of three actions chosen from movement, production, research, combat, and similar options until victory points end the game.
