About the Game

Build the Mothership is a solo game played with a standard deck of cards.

This game is part of the Space Piracy collection of solo standard deck card games.

You start the game with a tableau of cards that must be played onto a spaceship layout you design at the beginning of the game.

You play the game by moving cards in your tableau following typical tableau manipulation rules (a la FreeCell), but with a few twists, including being able to stage cards on your Queen helpers, and having to build two stacks per suit instead of just one.

You win the game by emptying your tableau and ensuring every part of your spaceship has been "built out".

You will receive a score based on how well you balanced the stacks of cards you played onto your spaceship while building it out.
