Empires of the Void: Key to the Universe 2012

On every inhabited world in the known galaxy, the Tolmek appeared, a race of pan-dimensional beings of immense power. Everywhere their message was the same: "We are dying and must choose a successor." The Tolmek are the keepers of the Key to the Universe, a powerful artifact that holds the secrets of their power. They will give this Key to the race that proves themselves most capable and worthy. The Tolmek are watching. Will you inherit the Key to the Universe?

The small expansion Empires of the Void: Key to the Universe is designed to make the game more fun and balanced. Players now have a fourth action each round that can be used to perform new actions. One of the new actions is called Enslave, which increases the income of conquered planets. Also included are technology boards, which replace tech tokens and have a number of new technologies that open up new paths to victory. Four additional alien races provide more choices for players. Key to the Universe also has a new, revised rulebook for Empires of the Void that makes the game easier to learn and more clearly explains how to play.

Key to the Universe, currently in beta-testing, is available as a free downloadable, print-and-play expansion here:
