Beschrijving

Among the Stars is a digital version of the highly acclaimed board game & a 2015 Origins Awards Best Card Game Nominee.

Imagine a distant future. A once peaceful galaxy has been torn apart by war. Alien races fight for power and dominance. And then a new threat appears on the horizon, with the potential to wipe them all out. In the face of this new enemy, all races must make peace and unite to survive. You represent one of those races. Your goal is to help build space stations throughout the galaxy, to promote trade among the races, strengthen diplomatic relations and help defeat the new threat you all face. However, your most important task is to make your space station the greatest of them all. Among The Stars will allow you to select locations through card drafting, and use them to build your station, scoring victory points based on their placement. Construction lasts four years, and the alien race with the most points at the end wins.

BUILD

Build your base in space! Use your cards to build new modules for your space station. Choose your cards carefully. If you do not use a card, your opponent may do so. Do you want to build in a location so it benefits your station, or simply because you do not want your opponents to build there?

POWER

Manage the power reactors across your space station. It is crucial to plan ahead and build enough power reactors to sustain the expanding base. Power reactors have a short range so you need to cleverly plan the layout of your base to maximize power usage.

DIPLOMACY

There are five different location types. Balancing the station is key to victory. By careful planning and taking advantage of card abilities you can create amazing combinations that will bring you ahead of your opponents. Over 120 card locations guarantee high replayability and a lot of strategic depth.

RACE

Each race has a unique skill that can be used to snatch victory from your opponents. Using race skills forces you to change the style of your play and adds another layer of complexity to your decision-making process.

OBJECTIVES

Objectives are another way to gain an advantage over your opponents. You can play it safe and ignore them, or you can risk it and try to claim the objective for additional reward.

CAMPAIGN

Enjoy a single player challenge-based campaign. All campaign missions alter the rules of the base game in a unique way. Every mission requires a different strategy to bring you victory.

Clearer than the real game, but buggy.

The rule book of the cardboard version is really poorly written, but this is clearer. The tutorial is slightly limited, does not explain everything, but the rest is not hard to get at all.
The scoreboard at the end is rather limited, it would help if it showed more in depth what score comes from what, like a walkthrough of each end game ability triggered and what it gives. It would help if it would also go through the objectives and who got what, or make that clickable.
The game is somewhat buggy, sometimes if you zoomed in on a card and then push a button it will go to a different screen, but the zoomed card is in front and will not go away, you’ll have to restart the game.
The game field should be zoomable, it is, but does not stay at the zoom level. You can also not slide it at all, I have had it that I wanted to click on a card to check the end game goal, which I could not because it was next to the Race ability button, and while I clicked quite a bit next to that, only that would trigger.
The game does play rather fast and simple. I like the animations. The art is good. The scoring and resources are quite clear at the top. But as the cardboard version, this does somewhat need an expansion to really kick things off.
In short, with limited bug fixes and a few slight modifications this would be 4, with more content, a 5.

Too slow

Animations still take up too much time.
Point calculation at the end could be more explanatory and more fun.
When building a power reactor sometimes it has zero power, usually after continuing a game. Seems like an error.
