About the game

What is Star Trek: Star Realms Core Set?

STAR TREK™: Star Realms® is a complete star ship combat deck-building game for 2-4 players. Build your fleet! Romulan, Klingon, Dominion, and Federation ships are yours to command. Play head-to-head or up to four players in multiplayer modes that offer versus and cooperative experiences. STAR TREK™: Star Realms® is fully compatible with other Star Realms® products. In STAR TREK™: Star Realms®, you start with a Personal Deck of cards representing your armada. On your turn you will play cards from your hand to gain Trade, Combat, Authority, and other effects. Trade is used to buy ship and Location cards. Combat is used to attack your opponent and their Locations. Authority is your score. The first player to reduce their opponent’s Authority to zero wins the game!
