Description

Starfall is a strategic wargame of stellar exploration and conquest where you build ships and send them out to explore the galaxy. You'll generate detailed worlds and decide whether to colonize or not, and how to deal with the natives if any are present. The game features a unique blend of action points, dice rolling, and grid movement, set on a hexagon grid that can change with the discovery of wormholes. As you navigate the galaxy, you'll need to invest in tech research to stay ahead, all while using hidden movement mechanics to outmaneuver your opponents. With a playtime of 180 minutes and rules of normal complexity, Starfall is a game that's engaging but not overwhelming, making it accessible to fans of board games. Published in 1979, it's a classic game of space exploration and conquest that's still fun today, offering a thrilling experience for 1 to 4 players.
