How to play

Click one of your planets to open its actions. Colonize any neutral planet next to you — it's instant and free. Build Infrastructure to start producing Food, Materials, or Energy, or throw up a Hangar to start hiring troops. When troops are ready, click to select them, then click an adjacent planet to send them there — one hop per turn. Attack an enemy planet by sending troops onto it; you'll see your odds before you commit.

Watch your Food — three bad turns in a row and your empire tips into crisis. Hit Finish Turn once your deploys and retreats are handled, and pass the device to the next player.

Cut the right connection at the right time, and half an empire can go dark before its owner even notices. Conquer the enemy Core Planet to win.
