Homeworlds

Far away in the universe, a battle rages between star empires. In Homeworlds you lead your own civilisation, with one big goal: destroy your opponent's homeworld before your own planet falls. Every move counts, because there is no luck and no hidden information. Everything is on the table and you set the course. The game revolves around small pyramids in four colours. Red is for attack, yellow lets your fleet travel through space, green brings growth and blue gives you the power to change things. With just 36 pyramids you build a whole star empire, explore new worlds and expand your power. Beneath the simple components sits a game with surprising depth. Homeworlds is a game for players who love thinking ahead. You sit across from each other, you read the other's plans and you look for that one moment to strike. A game takes about an hour and will stay on your mind long afterwards. Perfect for two strategists who want to bring out the best in each other.
