About this game

Captain your own Firefly-class transport ship across the Verse, picking up crew, dungeons of cargo, and jobs that range from perfectly legal to spectacularly not. The sprawling board captures that frontier-space feel where Alliance patrols and Reavers lurk between planets, and every full burn card flip could mean smooth sailing or catastrophic breakdown. It is slow, thematic, and dripping with love for the show, rewarding players who plan routes carefully and hire the right crew for each job.
