Mechanics (from transcript analysis)
  • Compound Scoring — Cards provide points for specific icons or cards when combined with others (e.g., holo deck, computer, science, engineer).
  • End Game Bonuses — Game ends when there are eight galaxy cards or twelve mission cards in the discard pile; players reveal and score.
  • end-game_conditions — Game ends when there are eight galaxy cards or twelve mission cards in the discard pile; players reveal and score.
  • hand management / card drafting — Players modify their hand by drawing or swapping cards: draw top galaxy deck and discard one; draw two mission cards and discard two; or pick a card from table and replace with one from hand. End turn with 1-2 mission cards (cannot go to zero).
  • icon-based_scoring — Cards provide points for specific icons or cards when combined with others (e.g., holo deck, computer, science, engineer).
  • multideck interaction — There are two card pools (galaxy and mission) that must be balanced; cards rely on icons and combos.
  • scoring_by_combinations — Points awarded based on card synergies (ambassador saric, turbolift, engineers, etc.) as described in the discussion, emphasizing combos.
