About this board game
Exoplanets is a medium-light board game for 2–4 players with a 60-minute play time. Players create their own planetary systems around a shared star by adding tiles that represent planets and moons.
Every planet provides a different number of tokens representing water, atmosphere, asteroids, and light. Moons can protect planets or help create life, while each planet also has its own climatic condition. Players use these features as they develop their systems and work toward creating life on their planets.
The growing table represents a collection of mutual planetary systems, so players are not isolated from one another. They can interact by attempting to interrupt opponents’ planets with space effects, use space tales, and fulfill goals to earn additional points at the end of the universe.
- Add planet and moon tiles to the common star.
- Gain water, atmosphere, asteroids, and light tokens.
- Use climatic conditions and moons to help create life.
- Interact with opposing planets and pursue goals for end-game points.
Exoplanets combines tile placement, resource tokens, planetary development, and direct interaction in a shared cosmic setting. With its blend of personal planetary systems and common space, every addition contributes to a larger universe shaped by all players.
Released in 2015, Exoplanets offers a focused space-themed experience in which building your own worlds also means responding to the systems developing beside them.
