The Final Frontier is a game that simulates man’s expansion into the Solar System. Players represent the global powers; each must build mines and colonies to tap the resources of the planets and their satellites, which boost that nation’s global economy, while ships and troops are built to protect these interests. Since the events in the game represent some degree of global politics, players must limit conflict; otherwise, their interactions may trigger larger and more aggressive interests in the space program, possibly leading to war.
