What kind of game is this?

Exoplanet is a tactical game by Klaus-Jürgen Wrede, the creator of Carcassonne. You are colonists on a newly discovered planet. Together you build a single city, but there can only be one winner: whoever contributes the most.

The planet is created during play. Every time someone explores, a new piece of terrain is added. You collect building materials, mine energy stones and metal, build domes and solar panels, and discover new animal species along the way. But beware of sabotage, tornadoes, and power outages.

How do you play?

On your turn, you have five action points. With them, you choose from:

  • Explore: you place a new landscape tile, so the planet grows.
  • Move: you move your scouts around the planet.
  • Collect: you pick up building materials, energy, and metal.
  • Action cards: you draw cards that help you, or hinder your opponents.

If your scouts are in the right place with the right materials, you build domes for extra scouts and solar panels for energy. With that energy, you bring metal to the city.

Example: You move a scout one space and explore a new piece of the planet. With your last action point, you draw another action card.

As soon as the city is full, the game ends. Whoever has the most points wins.

Why is it fun?
  • A growing planet The board is built up during play, so the planet looks different every game.
  • Every action counts With five action points per turn, you have to choose: move, explore, gather, or draw a card.
  • A little mischief With action cards, you can cause sabotage or power outages for your opponents, and you can take resources from them.
Who is it for?
