About this game

Build a galactic civilization through a role-selection deck builder where choosing an action lets everyone follow at reduced power. Eminent Domain blends Race for the Galaxy's role selection with Dominion-style deck building, as gaining cards from specific roles shapes your deck toward military conquest, peaceful colonization, or research. The follow mechanism keeps everyone engaged on every turn, and your deck naturally specializes based on your strategic choices.
