Description
Cosmic Encounter is a classic board game that's been thrilling players since 1977. In this game, you'll take on the role of an alien race seeking to expand your presence across the galaxy by colonizing five foreign worlds. To succeed, you'll need to form alliances, negotiate with other players, and make strategic challenges against your opponents. But beware - each alien race has its own unique powers that can bend or break the rules, adding a delicious layer of unpredictability to the game. With easy-to-learn rules and a playtime of around 90 minutes, Cosmic Encounter is a great choice for groups of 2 to 6 players. As you navigate the complexities of intergalactic diplomacy and conflict, you'll need to use all your wits and cunning to outmaneuver your opponents and emerge victorious. Will you be able to spread your alien empire across the galaxy and claim victory, or will your opponents outsmart you and take the prize?
