Space Opera

Players represent different spacefaring species in a post-pandemic galaxy where nomadic fleets harvest resources and avoid long-term settlement. The game plays as a card-driven conflict and development contest for 2–4 players, lasting roughly 30–90 minutes. Players use a shared deck or, in Competitive Mode, individual species decks plus 40 chosen resource cards. On a turn, players gather resources, deploy units and technologies, and engage in combat or development actions to pursue one of two victory paths: eliminate rival species or advance a civilization to Level 3. Resource management, tactical combat, deck composition, and timing drive decisions throughout the game.
