Description

Stellar Horizons is a game where you lead one of seven Earth factions to explore and develop our solar system, from 2030 to 2169. You control your faction's space program, outposts, and fleets, and have some influence over your faction's politics back home on Earth. The game is designed to be a plausible representation of humanity's first steps towards the stars, with each turn representing a year of time. You'll send out robotic explorers and crewed vehicles to explore the solar system, bringing back valuable data to further your scientific research. As you play, you'll have access to a wide variety of robot explorers and crewed ships, and can build bases to harvest resources and expand your economy. You can forge diplomatic relationships with other players and trade resources, but beware of military conflict and the threat of pirates and rogue factions. With multiple paths to victory, including developing an Interstellar Colonizer, terraforming a world, or achieving dominance in space, Stellar Horizons offers a challenging and immersive experience for 1 to 7 players.
