Go Forth and Colonize!

Your race is in peril. To survive, your alien life form must spread five colonies to other star systems. Fleets of spaceships, willpower, guile, and a bit of tricky card play are the tools at your command. Those, and your special alien power! Using your power lets you bend, mutilate, or break one rule of the game in a specific way. But beware -- all of the other aliens in the game have their own special powers, too. With 20 different alien powers to choose from, every game is sure to be different and exciting.

Unlike most games, it is possible -- in fact, likely -- that a game of Cosmic Encounter will end with two or more players all reaching their victory condition at the same time. The limitless combinations of alliances, negotiations, alien powers, and unpredictable attack orders make Cosmic Encounter a tremendously fun, lively, social game.
