About this game
Among the Stars is a card-drafting space race dressed up as diplomacy: your alien race builds a space station one drafted module at a time, and every card you pass on hands your neighbor exactly what they wanted. You are juggling defense, trade and diplomacy modules while racing to fill your station's limited slots before the four-year construction period ends. Variable race powers push you toward different strategies, so the same cards mean something different in every player's hands. It is a tight, mid-weight sci-fi drafter where reading the table matters as much as reading your own hand.
