Who it's for

A strong pick for two players who enjoy tight, cerebral card games with a real puzzle in the timing.

Not for you if…

Not for players who want variable player counts or a looser, more forgiving card game β€” every decision here carries weight.

🦊

Vibe's take

Quiet and cerebral β€” every card play is a calculated risk, since your hand order is locked and overcommitting can cost you the round.

About this game

A tight two-player card game about controlling four rival planets as they drift along their orbital tracks. Cards from a fixed hand order push a planet up or down, and the real skill lies in winning each contest by exactly the right margin rather than by the widest one.
