## Description

FAN FAVORITE: Fast paced game of dice-chucking luck and strategic choices where every player’s turn is exciting!

Review: 9/10, would definitely recommend. - Very fun game, great for families and strategy lovers! Takes some time to learn it but it’s he overall entry barrier is not high. There’s a few things in the game that are clearly overpowered but that also adds some fun competition for those items. Overall very good and visually pleasing game.
Review: Fun, fast, easy-to-learn game that the whole family can enjoy! - I picked up this game based on recommendations from some gaming podcasts. I had heard it compared to Machi Koro (in terms of gameplay). Although that is s popular game, I’ve never played it so I can’t really speak on the accuracy of that comparison. What I can say is that I have really enjoyed playing this game. I have played it seven times, now, and have enjoyed every play of it. I’ve played it with both friends and family members and everyone else has liked it, too - even my wife who was really apprehensive about playing it based on the theme. Speaking of theme, the theme of this game is very light and has nothing, really, to do with the game play of the game, so if you, like my wife, see all of these rainbow-colored spaceships and cartoony-looking illustrations, don’t let it put you off. Game play if pretty quick, regardless of the number of people playing. This is the case because everyone can be doing things and scoring points on everyone else’s turn. The game is essentially a card-based engine-building game. For anyone not familiar with the term “engine building,” that means that you are using cards that correspond to dice rolls to score points. By adding to your sets of cards or modifying your cards, you increase your opportunities to score points and start scoring higher amounts of points later in the game. The first person to 40 points wins. I have not, yet, picked up any of the expansions to this game, but I may do so. I think the game is very good, as is, but may get an expansion just to add more players and cards to the game.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Super fun
*by U***E on March 5, 2026*

This game is one of our favorites. We are a board and card game family. This game requires strategy and understanding of resource management and probabilities. Every game is different because you never know what cards you'll get. Sticking to a single "meta" (strategy) will likely hamstring your ability to compete in every game.
