| Wild As a main player or ally, if your side wins an encounter by 10 or more, you may force each player on the losing side to send one additional ship from any of his or her colonies to the warp. |
| Super When using your power, you may choose to pwn a ship belonging to an opposing ally instead of the opposing main player. |
The Arcade is an alien that can "pwn" (capture) opposing ships, provided the encounter was a numerically decisive victory for the Arcade. Pwning three ships of any one color, or five ships of any combination of colors, instantly allows the Arcade to conquer the Cosmos and win the game.
Strategy[]
As Arcade[]
Don't expect anyone to fall for your attempts to negotiate, unless another player can corroborate that they are your only encounter cards left in hand. (If you are forced to strike a deal via Emotion Control or otherwise, try to argue for Reinforcement cards or an agreement of future alliance.) Join defensive teams often: winning will not only extend the game, advance your turn, and stonewall other players, it will earn you powerful reward cards that can be used for overwhelming victories on your turn. Other players will "play high" against you to avoid being pwned, so it may be wise to bluff out their strongest cards ahead of time... then strike back at the next opportunity.
Against Arcade[]

| Edition | Power Text | History |
|---|---|---|
| CS | You have the power to Pwn. As a main player or ally, after both main players reveal attack cards and your side wins by 10 or more, use this power to pwn one ship from the opposing main player. As a main player or ally, after your side reveals an attack card and the other main player reveals a negotiate card, use this power to pwn one ship from the opposing main player. When you Pwn a ship, the opposing main player gives you one ship of his or her choice from any of his or her colonies. That ship is placed on this sheet. If there are three ships of the same color or five total ships on this sheet, you immediately win the game. You may still win the game via the normal method. |
