With these resources, you develop your colonies and attempt to build science stations and outposts. The game is played over ten rounds, each of which consists of three phases: discover, excavate, develop,\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e• In the discover phase, a resource card is flipped and resources are placed in excavation zones.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e• In the excavation phase, players use their excavation cards to compete for those resources.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e• In the development phase, development tiles (which are won in the excavation phase and come in a variety of shapes) are placed on the player's individual colony board.
