Aldebaran Duel Board Game

Build a spacefaring civilisation around the orange giant Aldebaran in Aldebaran Duel. One or two players guide rival empires as they explore the star system, colonise planets and establish the infrastructure needed to turn distant worlds into a productive interplanetary network.

Cards and mineral resources support the construction of spacecraft, settlements and technological development. Every investment competes with other demands, so expanding too quickly can leave an empire without the materials needed to secure valuable opportunities or answer a rivals progress.

The contest unfolds over three epochs, allowing early discoveries to shape later growth. Success comes from balancing exploration, colonisation and economic development while building the strongest overall position before the final comparison of the two empires.
