Description from the publisher:
The Ancient Uprising has been put down, and a fragile peace again holds in the galaxy…but suddenly, everything changes. Several new factions rise to disturb the status quo. The Unity nanomachines bend energy and matter to their will. The Shaper ships tear the spacetime fabric apart, while insignificant Octantis factions take a developmental leap after leap forward. It almost seems like the base laws of the universe no longer apply.
Eclipse: Shadow of the Rift introduces several new mechanisms to Eclipse, including Time Distortion, Evolution and Anomalies, as well as several new Rare Technologies, Developments and Discoveries. It includes two new player boards with three new different alien species from which to choose. Due to its modular design, you can use all of these additions or just some of them in any game of Eclipse according to your preferences and play style. The expansion does not require the Rise of the Ancients expansion, but is fully compatible with it.
As the shadows unfold from the rifts of spacetime, can your civilization stand unbroken?

Shadow of the Rift predstavuje druhé veľké rozšírenie pre strategickú hru Eclipse. Rozšírenie prináša množstvo inovatívnych prvkov, ktoré sa dajú použiť jednotlivo, alebo všetky naraz, záleží len od toho, čo preferujú samotní hráči. Rozšírenie je plne kompatibilné z prvým rozšírením Rise of Ancients.

The effort and imagination expended to deepen Eclipse's mechanics 5 years after the fact shows the deep love the developers have for the game and its players.

I think anomalies are a little much but the new races are extremely cool and the new combat victory tiles are a really wonderful addition to the game.
