The game's creators, Georgij Shugol, Alexander Krys, Oleg Meleshin, and Yury Yamshchikov, have crafted an experience that's equal parts cooperative and competitive, making for a unique and engaging play session. As you build your civilization ship, you'll have to decide how to play - will you work together with the other players to create a sturdy vessel, or will you sabotage their efforts to give your own confederation ship a leg up?

The choice is yours, and the game's mechanics of betting and bluffing, events, and tile placement will keep you on your toes.
