Description by Temple Gates Games LLC (from Google Play)

Race for the Galaxy is a strategy boardgame where players advance their empire by playing cards to build technological developments or to settle planets. Its core mechanic is a phase choosing game. Players secretly and simultaneously determine which one of seven phases they will lock in, all reveal at once, then execute the phases in order. Will you build an engine to ramp up VP generation on cheapo production planets? Will you invest in exploration and settle rare and valuable VP rich planets? Or will you rush a military conquest to cut off your opponents before they have a chance to develop their strategy.

Game Features

▪ 2 – 4 player with network multiplayer
▪ Single player mode with advanced neural network AI
▪ Five starting worlds and ninety settlement and development cards
▪ Free promo pack included: New Worlds with six additional starting planets
▪ Gathering Storm and Rebel Vs. Imperium expansions available for purchase

Comments on Race for the Galaxy for Android

★★★★★ Vajk Szécsi · Oct 22, 2021

FTG is a great game, period. And Eldon's AI does what's very rare, brings in AI that is actually truly hard to beat, without relying on "cheating" or a perfect strategy. I can only recommend it!

★★★★☆ Antti Sarajärvi · Jul 5, 2026

Great game. Desperately needs the Alien Artifacts -expansion though. Just the cards! It doesn't even need the Orb Module.

★★★★☆ Rob Stuff · Sep 20, 2023

Implementation of the card game is excellent. Game flow works well, great that you can always have a counter on opponents VPs. AI is challenging in hard mode. Have played vs AI almost flawlessly for years, but recently something seems to have broken. I'm now getting repeated crashes, which took a full reinstallation to resolve, forcing the loss of thousands of games in my log. Plus just found a bug: AI is given a VP bonus at the start of round even though it has less prestige than me.

★☆☆☆☆ Arnaud van der Ploeg · Apr 12, 2021

This app desperately needs an update. Screen resolution is way off on modern Android, to the point that where you touch on your screen is not the location you select in the app. Sound is so broken that I had to turn it off. Notifications display on my phone instead of the tablet I'm actually playing the game on.

★☆☆☆☆ Jonathan Wright · Aug 17, 2021

Crashes nearly every time I discard cards. I'm very disappointed and want a refund. The game is unplayable.

★★☆☆☆ Nathan Golly · Jul 26, 2021

I for whatever reason can no longer invite my friends to play a game. There is no longer the ability to customize the game for friend invite.

★☆☆☆☆ Klaus Herzog · Mar 30, 2022

Touchscreen coordinates are WAY off on my 10 tablet. Unplayable. On top of that, tech support is non-existent. NO REPLY to my multiple bug reports abot this issue (on more than one device). Not a great way to treat a PAYING customer.
