About this game

Take the chair of Kirk, Picard, Sisko, Janeway, or other iconic captains, each with an asymmetric deck that captures their leadership style. Star Trek: Captain's Chair is a deck-building dueling game where you command ships, deploy crew on away missions, and manage resources to complete objectives. The market system lets you recruit across Star Trek eras, and the area-majority element on shared missions creates genuine tactical decisions beyond deck optimization.
