Cosmic Encounter 42nd Anniversary Edition Board Game - Classic Intergalactic Conquest Strategy Game for Kids and Adults, Ages 14+

Cosmic Encounter: Colonize the Galaxy in an Interstellar Struggle for Supremacy!

In the vast depths of space, the diverse alien civilizations of the Cosmos engage in a captivating struggle for galactic domination. This game of interstellar exploration, negotiation, and conflict invites three to five players to lead their own unique alien races as they seek to spread their colonies across the stars.

Every planet in the universe is already under the rule of someone, and the only way to expand your cosmic colonies is through either diplomacy or war. By establishing colonies on five planets beyond the reaches of your home system, you will safeguard the future of your species and earn victory. Fail, and you will fall into the Black Abyss of space!

The alien races of the Cosmos vie with each other for control of the universe. Alliances form and shift from moment to moment, while cataclysmic battles send starships screaming into the warp. Players choose from dozens of alien races, each with its own unique power to further its efforts to build an empire that spans the galaxy. Many classic aliens from earlier editions of this beloved game return, such as the Oracle, the Loser, and the Clone, while newly discovered aliens, including Remora, Mite, and Tick-Tock, join the fray.

This classic game of alien politics features 50 alien races, flare cards to boost their powers, 100 plastic ships, a host of premium components, and all-new tech cards that let players research and build extraordinary technological marvels. No two games are the same, ensuring a unique experience every time you play.

The key to success in Cosmic Encounter lies in mastering the art of diplomacy and strategy. Forge alliances, negotiate with your opponents, and use your alien race's unique abilities to expand your empire and secure your species' supremacy. Remember, every planet is ruled by someone, and you must be prepared to use both diplomacy and war to achieve your goals.

Cosmic Encounter invites players to enter a world where the fate of the galaxy hangs in the balance. With its ever-changing gameplay, customizable options, and engaging interstellar competition, this board game promises hours of captivating gameplay and the opportunity to build a galactic empire that will stand the test of time.
