FroGames — Moments You'll Remember
A card that's not just for this game. It's for all the games to come.
WHAT IT'S ABOUT
A card worth more than one game
This promo card was distributed to those who pre-ordered SETI: Space Agencies, the game by Tomáš Holek published by Czech Games Edition in 2025. It's not just a bonus: it's a long-term investment in your deck.
It costs two credits and allows you to launch a probe and collect a signal. But the real value lies in the permanent effect: the next time you play with quick start cards, you'll have one extra card to choose from at the start of the game. A small advantage, but one that accumulates game after game.

SETI: Space Agencies – Space Agencies Promo Card
SETI supports solo play in the base game, and the card also works in that mode. The permanent effect remains identical: one extra card at setup in future games.
FrogScore · FroGames editorial rating · based on rules, international reviews, and play sessionsWhat this card gives you
Two effects in one
Launch a probe
Immediate action: put a probe into play, expanding your presence in space.
Collect a signal
Take a signal token, a key resource for advancing research and unlocking objectives.
Permanent bonus
The next time you play with quick start cards, you start with one extra card to choose from at setup.
Cost: 2 credits
An accessible investment for an effect that pays off in subsequent games.
It's not the strongest card. But every time you replay, you remember you have it.
A game in five acts
What happens when you play it
Not the rules. The experience.
You play it
It only costs two credits. You look at it, calculate: probe plus signal. A solid turn, nothing flashy. But then you read the permanent effect.
You launch the probe
The probe launches. You occupy a new area of space, preparing the ground for future turns. The signal you collect brings you closer to an objective.
The game ends
The card has done its job. It didn't win the game, but it kept the pace. And that permanent effect remains there, in your collection.
You replay after a week
Quick setup. You draw the quick start cards. You have one more than the others. You choose better, you start better. Small advantage, big difference.
After ten games
That extra card at setup has become routine. You don't think about it anymore, but every time you play, you start one step ahead. This is the value of a well-designed promo.
How it works
The card's effects
A card with three levels of value: immediate, tactical, and permanent.
Play the card by spending two credits from your pool. Low cost for a double effect.
Place a probe on a space zone. Expand your network, prepare your next moves.
Take a signal token from the supply. Use it immediately or save it for a future objective.
In subsequent games with quick setup, you'll have an extra card to choose from at the start. An advantage that accumulates game after game.
Why it's different from other promos
What makes it special
Permanent effect
It's not just a strong card for this game. It's a bonus that follows you in all future games with quick start cards. A long-term investment in your setup.
Double immediate effect
Probe plus signal. Two actions in one, both useful at any stage of the game. No wasted turns.
Accessible cost
Two credits. It doesn't drain your budget, it doesn't force you to sacrifice other moves. It fits naturally into the flow of the game.
Tactical versatility
It doesn't tie you to one strategy. It works if you focus on signals, it works if you expand probes. It adapts to your plan, it doesn't dictate it.
Value that grows over time
The more you play SETI, the more you appreciate that extra card at setup. After ten games, it becomes part of your routine. After twenty, you won't play without it.
Pre-order exclusivity
Distributed only to those who pre-ordered Space Agencies. A small thank you to those who believed in the game before its release.
When to use it
The right time to play it
The card works at any stage, but some moments are stronger than others.
Ideal moments
- In the early turns, to quickly expand your probe network and collect signals before others
- When you are one signal away from a key objective and need to close it immediately
- When you have two free credits and no other card to play offers the same combined value
When to wait
- If you have more powerful cards to play that require the same cost or less
- When credits are tight and you need to invest in more decisive actions
- Never: the permanent effect is always worth it, even if the tactical timing isn't perfect
A promo that doesn't shout. It works silently, game after game, and after a while you realize you wouldn't want to play without it.
Frequently asked questions
FAQ on SETI: Space Agencies – Space Agencies Promo Card
Can I use the card even if I didn't pre-order Space Agencies?
Yes, if you can find it. The card was distributed to pre-orders, but you don't need to have pre-ordered to use it. If you buy it from FroGames or trade it with other players, it works normally.
Does the permanent bonus apply to all games or just the next one?
To all future games with quick start cards. Once the promo is played, every time you use quick setup you will have an extra card to choose from. It is permanent, it does not get used up.
Does it also work in solo mode?
Yes. The immediate effects (probe and signal) work identically, and the permanent bonus also applies in solo games with quick setup.
Can I play multiple copies of the card in the same game?
Technically yes, if you own more than one. The effects stack: each copy played gives you a probe, a signal, and a separate permanent bonus for future games.
Is the card available in Italian?
No, this edition of the promo is in English, as per the original Czech Games Edition publication. The text is short and easily understandable even for those who don't have a perfect grasp of English.
