Read the full game description

The Artemis Odyssey sends rival human factions beyond Europa to explore star systems, settle planets, build factories, establish colonies, and install terraformers. Players secretly add action cards to a shared planning board; once the queue is full, every card resolves in order and can benefit everyone, while its planner receives priority or control. Reading opponents is therefore central: another faction’s travel, production, trade, construction, or scoring action can become the engine for your own turn if anticipated correctly. Alien artifacts, singularities, and missions open additional paths to points. The game is a streamlined reimplementation of Ad Astra with solo support and modern production.
