About this game
Dark Matter is a competitive sci-fi strategy board game for three to six players. Players will use strategy and diplomacy to earn victory points through expanding your empire with StarBase construction, researching dark matter that will populate in the center of the board through the game, through diplomacy with your rival players, construction and protection of your flagship, and by completing objectives. Offers board and event randomization so that no two games are the same. —description from the designer
