TauCeti Deichmann’s thorough design sits at a unique intersection of simple turn order and complex chains of trading. This refined edition re-implements the gameplay that makes Sidereal Confluence a standout:
- Asymmetrical gameplay – Play as one of 9 unique alien species, each with a unique story and playstyle to match
- Simultaneous turns – Little downtime as everyone acts at the same time
- Complex trades with simple notation – each converter tells you the approximate value of both inputs and products, helping you negotiate fair trades
- Information is open – all resources and technologies are public knowledge.
- Almost everything is tradeable – Not just your resources! Planets, ships, technology, future production and more.
- Deals are binding – even across turns. If you make a promise during a trade, you must deliver. Cooperation is the key to being the top competitor
Critical acclaim for the first edition:
“Sidereal creates a virtuous circle – good behavior is rewarded, which creates more good positive behavior that is in turn rewarded…players tend to be so nice that Sidereal is the only game where a player can go “Can I just have this and I’ll owe you one?” and you might say “Yeah!” Because a favor is valuable, and that is a really interesting game mechanic.”
“Dice Tower Judgement – Uniquely Excellent!”
