Federation*

The universe is divided into many federations that engage in trade, intrigue, and development. One of these federations, still in its early stages with five member planets, seeks to add a new delegation. Players must prove themselves over five years by developing strategies, seizing opportunities, and forming the right alliances, as only one delegation will ultimately be selected based on prestige.

The game features an interactive Eurogame design with innovative double-sided worker placement mechanics. Each game consists of five rounds, divided into phases where players play ambassador figures, undertake special missions, receive income, fund major projects, and enact laws. At the end of the game, the player with the highest prestige points wins and joins the federation, with ties resulting in shared victory.
