About this game

Rift Domination puts you at the helm of one of 20 asymmetric factions, each unlocking a different lineup drawn from 11 distinct unit types. Your faction shapes your approach — your decisions decide who dominates the Rift. A turn‑based 4X strategy game, Rift Domination rewards precise planning and bold plays. Earn victory points through: Epic fleet battles with fast, dice‑driven resolution Tactical Occurrence cards with clear timing windows and high impact System control & planet upgrades (choose from 8) to build economy and defense Exploration & expansion across a contested galaxy At its core lie fleet‑building and intense PvP interaction. Tailor your strongholds with upgrades like Artillery, Shield Generators, and Espionage Stations; time your OCC cards to turn the tide without bogging down the flow of play. With sharp faction identities, asymmetric unit access, and meaningful counterplay, Rift Domination challenges commanders to think ahead, adapt fast, and strike decisively. Only one will rule the void. Will it be you? -description from designer
