Race for the Galaxy: Alien Artifacts (4th Expansion)^*

The fourth expansion introduces a unique direction with 46 new cards, including 5 new starting worlds and an action card set for a fifth player, usable without the Orb cards. Additionally, 49 cards represent the Alien Orb, which players can map and explore for artifact tiles that grant powers and victory points. An optional Orb gameplay adds a fresh experience, requiring players to balance their efforts between exploring the Orb and developing their empires.
