Last Light — Prices

Imagine the universe is reaching its heat death, and the only hope for survival is the last remaining white dwarf star. This is the high-stakes setting of Last Light. You take command of an asymmetrical alien faction, each with its own unique strengths, racing against time and rivals to gather light and ensure your species' survival. The game delivers the classic 4X experience—eXplore, eXpand, eXploit, and eXterminate—but at a much faster pace than the typical 8-hour marathons associated with the genre.

The standout feature is the board: it rotates and features 3D planets, making movement and spatial planning dynamic and visually striking. The gameplay revolves around simultaneous action selection, meaning no one is stuck waiting for their turn; everyone chooses their action card and executes it at once. You'll be mining resources, advancing your technology, and commanding fleets, but the ultimate goal is always the same: reaching the center of the map.

As you strive for area majority and manage your hand of cards, the tension ramps up because space is literally running out. The race toward the white dwarf transforms the match into a true 'King of the Hill' struggle, where the first player to accumulate 20 units of light wins the race and saves their civilization. It's a space strategy game that blends the depth of a wargame with the fluidity of simultaneous actions, perfect for those who crave the complexity of a galactic empire without needing an entire weekend to finish a single session.
