2011 Traditional Game

of the Year

Explore far-away planets. Discover what resources and surprises they hold. Be the first to set foot on a new planet and claim it as your own. Collect resources to gain fortune and fame. All of this comes courtesy of: the Jump Gate.

Players are spaceship captains that are competing to be the best at claiming new planets and collecting the resources found at those planets.

Players score points at the end of the game based on the number of planets they scanned and claimed, and their combination of resources collected. Each type of resource has a different method for being scored - so, collecting sets of the same resource is encouraged ... and disrupting other players' collection plans is good strategy.
