The goal of ''Star Realms'' is to destroy your opponent or opponents by purchasing cards using "trade" points and using these cards to attack your opponent's "authority" using your "combat" points.

All cards have a trade cost, which is used to determine how many trade points the player needs to buy the card. Cards have either a trade value or a combat value or both, giving the player a boost for purchasing cards or attack opponents. Many cards also have a special ability, eg. letting the player draw more cards to her hand or forcing an opponent to discard cards. Some cards also has the ability to be scrapped, which removes them from the game entirely but also gives the player some kind of benefit. Cards are either ships, which are used and then placed in the discard pile at the end of the turn, or bases which are played and stays in play until the are attacked by an opponent then thereby discarded. Bases are either a base or an outpost. Bases have a grey shield, and provides some kind of benefit but no protection to the player's authority or other bases. Outposts have black shields and act as protection as well as any benefits. Outposts must be attacked first, before an opponent can attack the player or other bases. An opponents combat points must be above or equal to the base's shield value to destroy it and move it to the discard pile. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Star Realms」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
