Get ready for an intergalactic frenzy in Sidereal Confluence! This isn't your average space trading game; it's a whirlwind of frantic exchanges where 4 to 9 alien civilizations seek to prosper together – or at least, try not to go bankrupt alone. Each race has its own unique technologies and needs, meaning you WILL have to talk, bargain, and strike deals with everyone to get the right resource cubes. It's a competitive game, but the trading phase has an almost cooperative vibe because nobody makes it alone here!

Throughout intense rounds, you'll manage your economy, research technologies that benefit everyone (and score you points!), and colonize planets. The beauty lies in how one race's outputs rarely match its inputs, forcing this dance of real-time negotiations. Almost everything is on the table: resources, ships, colonies, and even the temporary use of technologies. After all the negotiation chaos, everyone simultaneously runs their economies to see what they've managed to produce. The ultimate goal? Accumulate victory points through research, resource conversion, and secret objectives. With asymmetrical alien races and a heavy focus on interaction, Sidereal Confluence is a unique experience for those who enjoy organized chaos and lots of talking.
