It is the year 2200. We are at the edge of the known universe, and a race for a seat on the mighty Council of Shadows is in full swing, with four civilizations competing for admission. Only those who provide the Council with more energy each round and surpass themselves will be successful.

In Council of Shadows, you take on the role of one of these four civilizations, secure the strongest actions, take control of important territories, and be the first to make three quantum leaps. This is how you win the race for planets and resources and become part of the Council of Shadows!
