The Games You Want to Play – Part V…

Eclipse
This game has been a popular choice of ours. Despite its depth we have been able to get it finished in one (sometimes two) weeknights of play. Although it has been referred to as “mini-TI4”, it is a different game that focuses more on spacecraft design and tech development. This is a 2011 game that recently had a 2nd Edition launched on Kickstarter. Funding is over and the latest delivery dates are for March 2019. However, it is not ready for pre-order, yet.

A game of Eclipse places you in control of a vast interstellar civilization, competing for success with its rivals. You will explore new star systems, research technologies, and build spaceships with which to wage war. There are many potential paths to victory, so you need to plan your strategy according to the strengths and weaknesses of your species, while paying attention to the other civilizations’ endeavors.

The shadows of the great civilizations are about to eclipse the galaxy. Lead your people to victory!
