An epic trade & negotiation game. You each control a very unique alien race with different needs, exports, & abilities. Cooperate & compete to develop technologies & score prestige!
Long Description:
Trade Empires, likely arriving in 2017, is a game that has been in development for the past several years. It is a singularly unique trading and negotiation game for 4-9 players, lasting two to three hours including explanation. This is the first time the game has been available to play at a public convention! Over the course of the game, each race must trade and negotiate with the rest to acquire the resource cubes necessary to fund their economy and allow it to produce goods for the next turn. Scheming, dealing, and mutually beneficial agreements are key to success. While technically a competitive game, Trade Empires has a uniquely cooperative feel during the trading phase, as no race has the ability to thrive on their own. Trade well, and you'll develop technologies and colonize planets to form a civilization that is the envy of the galaxy.
