This is game has great potential some player aids to assist would help. Designer should have had some hardcore gamers a system with the mechanics of this game but still look forward to learning it better and loving the concept.
Wonderful game about expansion into the solar system over the next 150+ years. You'll be building ships to go out and establish mining bases and colonies, dropping crews and rovers onto planets, moons and asteroids to explore (and perhaps find signs of life along the way), and occasionally fending off pirates (or other players). The rules themselves are quite simple; most of the time you'll be trading in one of 3 resource tokens/money for a ship or facility counter, moving ships from tile to tile, and rolling dice to see if a malfunction occurs, if your exploration succeeds in getting you some research points, etc. Recommend getting the errata/FAQ, though, as the rulebook can be confusingly worded at times. Every faction is different and has strengths and weaknesses, which adds a bit of flavour!
The production quality of the game is excellent, with sturdy, thick counters and solar system body tiles. The tech and policy trees are mounted boards as well.
4/5 as I feel you need to enjoy some dice-rolling with small odds of catastrophic outcomes, and slow-paced, gradual development through chaining one very small action after another over multiple turns & hours. If those things appeal to you I think you'll love it!
