You expand a sci-fi civilization across a modular galaxy board. You manage research tracks and build mines to establish your economy. It is essentially a modernized and heavier version of the Terra Mystica system. The modular board means you never play the exact same puzzle twice. You will stare at your player board for minutes trying to calculate the most efficient path. It is intimidating at first but deeply rewarding once you understand the flow. You need to commit a whole evening to it.
