About this game

Everyone rides the same airship through increasingly rewarding sky cities, but each stop gives you a choice: disembark safely with current treasure, or stay aboard hoping the captain can handle the upcoming danger. If the captain fails, everyone still aboard loses everything. Celestia adds captain powers and equipment cards to the Cloud 9 formula, creating a push-your-luck adventure where reading the captain's ability to handle danger is as important as your own risk tolerance.
