About Albedo

Albedo is a fast-paced, conflict-based card game in which players fight for dominance in the galaxy. At its core, Albedo is a deck-building game that always takes 35-45 minutes to play — irrespective of player numbers — due to simultaneous action selection. Players vie for control of planets that grant victory points and new unit cards by choosing whether to play their spaceship cards geared for space combat or whether to flip them 180° to retrofit them for ground combat. If you combine two copies of Albedo, up to eight players can compete in the same game.
