Great game
This is one of my favorite board games, but it desperately needs an expansion. Any plans to expand this?
Description
Among the Stars is a digital version of the highly acclaimed board game & a 2015 Origins Awards Best Card Game Nominee.
Imagine a distant future. A once peaceful galaxy has been torn apart by war. Alien races fight for power and dominance. And then a new threat appears on the horizon, with the potential to wipe them all out. In the face of this new enemy, all races must make peace and unite to survive. You represent one of those races. Your goal is to help build space stations throughout the galaxy, to promote trade among the races, strengthen diplomatic relations and help defeat the new threat you all face. However, your most important task is to make your space station the greatest of them all. Among The Stars will allow you to select locations through card drafting, and use them to build your station, scoring victory points based on their placement. Construction lasts four years, and the alien race with the most points at the end wins.
BUILD
Build your base in space! Use your cards to build new modules for your space station. Choose your cards carefully. If you do not use a card, your opponent may do so. Do you want to build in a location so it benefits your station, or simply because you do not want your opponents to build there?
POWER
Manage the power reactors across your space station. It is crucial to plan ahead and build enough power reactors to sustain the expanding base. Power reactors have a short range so you need to cleverly plan the layout of your base to maximize power usage.
DIPLOMACY
There are five different location types. Balancing the station is key to victory. By careful planning and taking advantage of card abilities you can create amazing combinations that will bring you ahead of your opponents. Over 120 card locations guarantee high replayability and a lot of strategic depth.
RACE
Each race has a unique skill that can be used to snatch victory from your opponents. Using race skills forces you to change the style of your play and adds another layer of complexity to your decision-making process.
OBJECTIVES
Objectives are another way to gain an advantage over your opponents. You can play it safe and ignore them, or you can risk it and try to claim the objective for additional reward.
CAMPAIGN
Enjoy a single player challenge-based campaign. All campaign missions alter the rules of the base game in a unique way. Every mission requires a different strategy to bring you victory.
AMONG THE STARS MAIN FEATURES:
A digital version of the highly acclaimed board game
A unique single player campaign
Card drafting mechanics combined with physical card layout with 120 cards
8 different races, each with their own skill

Among the Stars Reviews
One big issue.
This game actually won me over very quickly. The mechanics are relatively straightforward but the gameplay gets complex in an engaging and fun way. The reason I can’t give 5 stars is there doesn’t seem to be a way to turn off the animations. A significant portion of the game is me waiting for the app to begin auto-playing after my turn. I can skip it, but there’s a mandatory wait before that button appears. That and the building animations etc are unnecessary, at least for me. A game could easily take half as much time of this were optional. Am I missing something obvious? Hoping for a response. Overall definitely recommend the game!
game bugs still destroy games
Just downloaded again to check up on it, lost another game to permanent freeze in year 4 on my first game because i tapped on my alien power during an AI turn, I guess. I own so many boardgame apps with similar problems, I no longer buy them.
It’s a star!
A really nice port of the board game. I wish more developers put this kind of effort into their craft.
Good game but frequently locks up.
I really enjoy this game and it’s app implementation. The campaign was fun and I’m eager for more episodes. My greatest frustration with this game is having the game lock up with “AI Thinking”, about every third game I play. If you try to reboot the app, the playing screen is all black. Since games are quick, it’s not terrible, but still super annoying.
Multiplayer game stuck
The game looks fun, but the very first online multiplayer game wouldn’t open after playing through the first round. Makes you hesitant to try again and lose all the effort. Shame.
Love the board game love the app version
Great digital version of an excellent board game.
Good app version with serious bug.
Good port of the board game, but no one playing multiplayer.
Solid App with a Bug
Locking up on the first new campaign stage after the last update. AI starts to think, but never plays.
Smooth, easy and relaxing adaptation of board game
Very straightforward and quickly addicting!
