Astraios: Starlight

Bring the night sky back to life in Astraios: Starlight, a luminous abstract strategy game from Japanese publisher PhantomLab. Designed for 2–4 players and playable in 15–20 minutes, this glow-in-the-dark edition reimagines the original Astraios with refined gameplay and striking new components.

Long ago, the stars disappeared — now, as children chosen by Astraios, players must reconnect constellations and restore the heavens. On your turn, place tiles to link stars and form enclosed nebula shapes. With all players’ hands visible, the challenge lies in anticipating moves, blocking rivals, and creating constellations that score the most points at game’s end.

When playing with four players, Astraios: Starlight introduces a team mode where partners cooperate to control sections of the sky. Combining elegance, strategy, and a mesmerizing celestial theme, this compact game offers a beautiful balance of logic, teamwork, and visual charm.
