About this item
Product details
RACE FOR THE GALAXY - ALIEN ARTIFACTS - Race for the Galaxy: Alien Artifacts, is the fourth expansion for Race for the Galaxy, is incompatible with earlier expansions for that game, instead taking the game in a new direction. Race for the Galaxy: Alien Artifacts consists of two parts: 1) 46 new cards including 5 new start worlds to add to the base set, plus a set of action cards and start hand for a fifth player. These can be used without the orb cards. 2) 49 cards used to represent the Alien Orb which players jointly map and explore, gaining artifact tokens of various types that provide powers and VPs. There are also five new Explore action cards used in the orb game (instead of gaining an additional card or greater card selection). The orb game is optional and provides a new RFTG experience, as players have to balance how much effort and actions they wish to put into exploring the orb versus developing their empires. When a huge, mysterious Alien Orb is found near a dwarf star, rival survey teams are sent to explore its interior and retrieve valuable Alien artifacts. Can you build the most prosperous and powerful space empire while discovering Alien secrets?
- NEW START WORLDS & CARDS FOR FIVE PLAYERS: Includes 46 new cards, featuring 5 new start worlds, new action cards, and VP chips, expanding the base game to accommodate up to five players.
- INTRODUCES THE ALIEN ORB GAME: Optional new gameplay with 49 cards representing a mysterious Alien Orb that players explore collaboratively, earning artifact tokens with unique powers and victory points.
