Description
Beyond the Sun is an engaging space civilization board game. Players collaborate to shape humanity's technological progress at the start of the Spacefaring Era, while also competing to become the top faction in economic development, science, and galactic influence. The game consists of a variable number of rounds and ends when players collectively achieve certain game - end goals. The winner is the faction with the most victory points, which can be earned by researching technologies, boosting the economy, controlling and colonizing systems, and fulfilling various in - game achievements and events. In each turn, players move their action pawn to an open action space, take the corresponding action, go through the production phase (producing ore, growing population, or trading resources), and can claim an achievement if possible. As players take actions, they research four - level technologies of four types (scientific, economic, military, commercial) and build their own unique technology trees. This helps them enhance military strength, reach habitable exoplanetary systems, colonize them, increase resource production, and develop android tech for population - free growth. It's suitable for 2 - 4 players, takes 60 - 120 minutes to play, and is recommended for ages 14 and above.
How to play: First, gather 2 to 4 players who are 14 years old or above. The game will last about 60 to 120 minutes. Each turn, move your action pawn to an empty action space and take that action. After that, it's time for the production phase. You can choose to produce ore, grow your population, or trade resources. If you meet the requirements, you can claim an achievement. As you play, you'll research new technologies to improve your faction's power. Keep in mind that higher - level technologies need to match the type of lower - level ones. Attention: Make sure to understand the rules clearly before starting the game. When trading resources, think carefully about your long - term strategy. Maintenance: Since it's a board game, keep it in a dry and clean place to prevent damage to the game pieces and cards.
