Sidereal Confluence: Trading and Negotiation in the Elysian Quadrant is a singularly unique trading and negotiation game for 4-9 players. Over the course of the game, each race must trade and negotiate with the rest to acquire the resource cubes necessary to fund their economy and allow it to produce goods for the next turn. Scheming, dealing, and mutually beneficial agreements are key to success. While technically a competitive game, Sidereal Confluence has a uniquely cooperative feel during the trading phase as no race has the ability to thrive on its own. Trade well, and you'll develop technologies and colonize planets to form a civilization that is the envy of the galaxy.

Since each culture's outputs rarely match their inputs, players need to trade goods with one another to run their converters to create the resources they truly need to run their society most efficiently and have an effective economy. Almost everything is negotiable, including colonies, ships, and all kinds of resources. The ultimate goal is victory points, which are acquired by researching technologies, using your economy to convert resources to goods, and converting your leftover goods into points at the end of the game.

The acclaimed negotiation game has been remastered!

Tauceti Deichmann’s thorough design sits at a unique intersection of simple turn order and complex chains of trading. This refined edition re-implements the gameplay that makes Sidereal Confluence a standout:

  • Asymmetrical gameplay – Play as one of 9 unique alien species, each with a unique story and playstyle to match
  • Simultaneous turns – Little downtime as everyone acts at the same time
  • Complex trades with simple notation – each converter tells you the approximate value of both inputs and products, helping you negotiate fair trades
  • Information is open – all resources and technologies are public knowledge.
  • Almost everything is tradeable – Not just your resources! Planets, ships, technology, future production and more.
  • Deals are binding – even across turns. If you make a promise during a trade, you must deliver. Cooperation is the key to being the top competitor
