The Intergalactic Planet Show Game #2 (Sydney, NSW, Australia)

  • Lachlan’s Line Auditorium Jarvis Circuit North Ryde, NSW, 2113 Australia (map)

Organiser: Sydney Megagamers
Designer: Nathan Corr

Get planet crafting! After intergalactic travel was found, 10 Corporations bought up everything that existed. These 10, the most powerful forces in the universe, became bored. They decided to do what anyone would do, discover and terraform planets and compete them in the Intergalactic Planet Show!

The Intergalactic Planet Show is a colourful sci-fantastic megagame where you take up the role of an alien in one of these corporations. Craft planets, explore the intergalactic universe and try to win awards like 'The best planet to be stranded on'.

IPS is crunchy and rules driven, with improv and creative thinking on top. You and your team will build a tableau of cards, use the card powers together to get resources and fuse cards together into new and Wondrous cards. The game will be big and full of energy, and trusts you as players to gather some of their resources, and discuss and prepare for each round.

Each team has a sphere of gameplay that they have a unique affinity to. That's right! 10 Spheres of gameplay. You won't need to learn more than 2, but it always helps to know what your team members need. That means across your 5 member team, different roles will interact with different parts of the game, some are more mechanical, creative or social, but all of them interact with the base mechanics of planet and card use.

If you like finding combinations of rules to pull off neat effects, improvising and creatively combining card themes to form new things, or negotiating and making deals you'll find that in IPS.
