Every turn brings a new adventure as you explore new space systems, encounter new life forms and civilizations, and make wondrous discoveries. With a vast array of planets and interstellar phenomena to discover, no two games will ever play the same.

The choice is yours in Star Trek: Ascendancy, a game of strategy and discovery that's out of this world.
