About the Game

A Mysterious Universe. Silver and glass rockets jet around the galaxy. Other planets are now being populated by courageous scientists and spacemen. Captain Future with his team of the space pirate GRAG, Otto the Android, and Simon Wright, the living brain, dive into the fight against foreign invaders.

Object of the game is to occupy as many spaces on the planets as possible.

Bits: 1 board, 66 space cards, (space and event cards) 170 spaceships, 1 secret stone, rules.

Once all spaces on a planet are occupied, the planet is conquered.

Whoever has the majority on a planet can play a card to kick a foreign ship off the planet.

A player without a majority, but at least a space on the planet can conquer a spaceship on the planet with two cards.

A player without a spaceship on the planet can conquer with 3 cards. If no players have a definite majority, then all attacks require two or three cards.

The game ends when a player plays his last ship. Each other player may play one more time before the game ends. Each player gets as many points as he has spaceships on planets. Whoever completely controls a planet gets 5 for a big planet, 4 for an average planet, and 3 for a moon.

For other planets a player with a majority receives one extra point.

Whoever has the most points wins the game.
