Solis

In Solis, players lead rival megacorporations in a race to build Dyson Spheres — massive megastructures that envelop entire stars to harvest their energy. Over the course of the game, players develop their deck of specialists, manage an interconnected production chain, manipulate a dynamic resource market, research permanent technologies, and compete for the construction rights of increasingly powerful stars.

About the game

What is Solis

Each round, called a Century, players play cards from their personal deck to generate Work — a non-storable resource that must be immediately allocated across the corporation's six facilities: an Orbital Mine (producing Titanium), a Fusion Refinery (Fusion Fuel), a Nanostructure Factory (Nanostructures), an Exotic Synthesizer (Exotic Matter), a Commerce Terminal (market access and card acquisition), and an Operations facility (construction and energy distribution). Efficient allocation of Work is the engine at the heart of every turn.

The four physical resources follow a strict production hierarchy — Titanium, Fusion Fuel, Nanostructures, and Exotic Matter — with more advanced materials requiring higher work costs and more specialized facilities. These resources, along with Credits (the game's currency), are bought and sold on a floating market where prices shift dynamically based on the collective decisions of all players.

Six types of stars are available for construction (from Red Dwarf to Neutron Star), each requiring escalating resources and offering greater energy potential and final scoring. Dyson Spheres are built across four levels: Orbital Infrastructure, Primary Ring, Secondary Ring, and Complete Sphere. Only the holder of a star's construction rights may build on it.
