Players start with a small number of Galactic Credits, a Corporate Headquarters and a small facility. Since space is a very large place, on your turn you roll dice to determine the area of space players will focus their attention this turn. As the Active Player you have numerous options including activating factories, building new factories, hiring employees, or even affect the conditions for victory. When you’re done, other players in clockwise order may activate their factories that fall within the area of focus you determined to produce raw materials, convert raw materials into finished goods, or sell finished goods on the market.
Money is needed throughout the game, but being the best at growing your corporation in the right places and at the right time will win the game. Three scoring rounds occur twice during the game and once at the end. The victory conditions change after each scoring (and possibly also by players) and are determined by a Victory Conditions card. The player with the most victory points at the end is the winner.
