And on every planet, new encounters and incidents await!
Over 100 aliens! An adventure combo-meal of mystery & drama!
During your treasure hunt, unexpected encounters await at every turn via random events.

For the completionists, there's a gallery to record all the intergalactic rogues you meet, sub-missions, and training where you can battle powerful opponents! Contrary to its name, space is very full!
Battle rival treasure hunters and a plethora of aliens in card-based battles!
Treasure attracts trouble, leading to card-based battles with anyone from rival treasure hunters to unknown aliens lurking about. With a set number of cards in your hand, read through your opponent鈥檚 strategy and forge a path to absolute victory! Inside your spaceship is a bonsai that bears fruits. Use them to boost your abilities or switch your opponent鈥檚 hand with yours. This bonsai also bears Magic Fruits, which will hold tremendous powers, but use them at your own risk!
