How do you play Exoplanet?
In Exoplanet, players try to score victory points by exploring the planet with their team and delivering metal tokens to the city tile. This requires energy, which you can extract from energy stones or generate using solar panels. Humans can reproduce by building domes in which they can live. Drawing action cards can yield extra benefits and ensures you stay ahead of the competition. You can also use them to discover new animal species, which give you extra victory points. Each building structure gives you more victory points. As soon as all available spaces on the city tile are occupied, the game ends immediately. The player with the most points wins.
On your turn, you have 5 action points at your disposal, which you can use in various ways. For example, you can move your explorers, who may discover new terrain or collect building materials. You can also choose to assess the value of metal tokens or draw action cards. After spending your action points, you may build if you meet the conditions. Finally, you collect energy with scouts at solar panels. This energy is needed to deliver metal tokens to the central tile, which ultimately allows you to earn the most points and win the game!
