Description

Star Realms: Frontiers is a new standalone Star Realms series game with an 80-card trade deck and new scorecards that's suitable solitaire or cooperative play. It can be combined with Star Realms and/or Star Realms: Colony Wars.

Star Realms is a fast-paced game of space battles that combines the fun of a deckbuilding game with the interactivity of Trading Card Game-style combat. As you play, you make use of Trade to acquire new Ships and Bases from the cards being turned face up in the Trade Row.

You use the Ships and Bases you acquire to either generate more Trade, or to generate Combat to attack your opponent and their Bases. When you reduce your opponent’s score (called Authority) to zero, you win! Battle your friends or team up to play cooperatively against the game!
