About the Game

It's essentially Chinese Checkers with a rotating board. The goal of the game is be the first player to move your 4 spaceships home. During your turn, you can move 1 piece, by either moving 1 space, or 'jumping' over any ship or ships, checkers-style.

After you move, you then roll a die and the board spins from 1 to 3 spaces left or right! The end-game usually consists of everyone moving their last ship back and forth until a lucky die roll is made.

Note: There are separate game pages for the 1975 card game from Whitman and the 1974 board game from Omnia, as well as the Italian game Spazio: 1999.
