Frequently asked questions
How do points accumulate during the game?
Unlike many heavy eurogames where all points are held secret and calculated entirely at the finish line, SETI awards the majority of its points dynamically as you play via actions like landing probes and analyzing signals.
Which cards count towards end-of-game card scoring?
Only cards explicitly marked with a gold box/banner contribute to end-of-game card scoring. Standard operational cards played strictly for immediate mid-game effects do not add points here.
How do you count income card tucked multipliers?
When scoring certain gold milestone tiles that evaluate card income, players only count the cards tucked underneath their starting income card rather than the default resources printed on the income card itself.
Why does the alien species scoring category change from game to game?
Because a different combination of two alien species is randomly selected and introduced during setup out of the five possible species in the box, the exact mechanism and weight of the final alien scoring category changes from game to game.
