Set out for galactic conquest…
in this all new competitive card crafting, tile placement board game full of cosmic battles, human abduction, and planetary take overs all for the sake of being throned the new Supreme Overlord!
Players all take up the roll of alien siblings all trying to win over Daddy’s love and respect so they could get the throne passed down to them when he retires. In order to take up the mantle of Supreme Overlord, players must abduct humans from Earth, experiment on them and amass an army of modified soldiers to invade as many planets as they can in the galaxy.
Craft humans to survive different atmospheres of planets to overtake them, but be careful, for other players may clash with you over the same planet!
Upon victory, take your newly conquered planet tile and place it carefully on your tableau with the goal of trying to gain the highest tile matching bonuses.
Whoever has the most Victory Points in the end wins.

Roll Dice and Select Actions
Everyone simultaneously rolls dice in secret to see what actions they can perform for the round, however it’s up to the Active player on what action gates are open. Players must hope that the actions they selected can be carried out.
-
Modify Abducted Humans - Invade Hostile Planets
Abduct humans from Earth, modify them with power boosts and atmospheric immunities to invade all sorts of planets for the taking. But those same planets may be tempting for other players so battles between each other will occur!
-
Obtain Planets - Align them for Maximum Victory Points
Once players obtain planets, they must be careful planning their arrangement on their player tableau in order to maximize end game victory points to come out on top. Players then farm each planet for resources every turn. To maximize gains, terraforming a planet is a worthwhile goal.
What’s Unique about Planet Emporium?
-
Everyone gets to go at the same time, so no boring wait time for you to finally make your move. Everyone rolls dice at the same time, and sets up their actions in secret. This all happens at the same time in private. Then a turn order begins when carrying out actions which are quite fast pace during this stage. Players also secretly choose which planet/s to invade all at the same time, then revealing the outcome.
-
The Modify action allows players to add, remove and or swap/flip Body Part Tiles which customize their soldiers. These tiles change up a human soldier’s power and immunity to certain atmospheres.
The Develop action allows players to add tech to their human soldiers which gives a power boost as well as alter/increase existing tech on humans. Developing also allows players to add and or increase tech on planets as well as Ship Upgrade Cards. Upgrading this type of tech grants players more options.
-
Ship Upgrade Cards are mini tableaus that can be purchased and set aside on your main personal player tableau. Players add tech (dice) on to these cards and can increase the power of that tech each turn gaining abilities and upgrades that each Ship Upgrade Card generates.
