About the game
What you do in a play session
The gameplay is driven by a narrative paragraph system. Upon reaching a planet, you choose an action and consult the adventure booklet to see the outcome, making every exploration a unique mini-story. But beware: space is treacherous! A wrong choice could lead to the loss of your starship or disastrous diplomatic consequences. The game is perfect for those who enjoy thematic immersion and a bit of 80s nostalgia. With classic components like a mounted map and colorful playing pieces, it offers straightforward gameplay packed with tactical decisions. Whether playing against a friend or in solo mode, the challenge lies in balancing territory expansion with the careful management of your resources and ships. It is a true relic for Star Trek fans looking for a classic exploration experience at the table.
