(Planets: TEOS) is a space role playing game. You play as a trader in a galaxy with many other players who seek to gain control of a limited amount of resources and make money by selling or trading for other resources. Use your wealth to upgrade your spaceship with better weapons and armor, or even purchase more vessels and attain an armada. With your forces, take control of planets and starbases. Those with the most power are lords of the galaxy!
It is a space oddessy that allows players to shape the game like no other.
