Games like Astra
Looking for games like Astra? It strips theme away to leave a clean contest of position and tempo — built on the constant fight to control more of the board than your rivals and the chase to complete the right combinations.

The strongest matches come first; the further down you go, the more a game trades exact overlap for a fresh take on the same core appeal.
