Your civilization has grown to the edge of the known universe. To expand farther you'll need to explore exotic worlds and learn their language and customs. Mine foreign asteroids for valuable crystal and befriend alien cultures in Eminent Domain: Exotica! Exotica is an expansion to Eminent Domain and cannot be played without the base game. The designer recommends that you play the base game several times before incorporating this expansion. All copies include a promo pack that is used when playing the base game with both expansions (Exotica and Escalation).
