Rival space agencies race to terraform and develop newly discovered planets into the most successful colonies.

Gameplay

Develop the most successful new colony by drafting dual-resource polyomino tiles and fitting them onto your planet board while advancing matching infrastructure tracks for points. The puzzle is tight space and timing—every pick shapes what you can place later while meteors can permanently scar valuable scoring areas.
