About the Game

A card game based on the Sid Meier computer game of the same name.

The game is played with a custom card deck composed of the following types of cards: Events, Technologies, Structures, Special Projects, Landmarks, Proposals, and Social Engineering. Tokens and markers are used to keep track of Bases (cities), Units (military forces), and Credits (income).

Six social factors, also referred to as scores, are tracked for each player’s Faction: Population, Economics, Research, Military, Ecology, and Espionage. These factors are used to determine victory.

There are four types of victory defined in the game: Diplomatic, Economic, Conquest, and Transcendence. The first player to achieve any one of these victory conditions wins the game.
