A shoot 'em up on the table, with space scrolling past as card rows disappear.
This is a board game take on the classic shoot 'em up, played on a scrolling space backdrop made of rows of cards. Each turn the bottom row drops away and a new one appears at the top, so the map moves under your pilots whether they are ready or not. You fly nimble fighters through asteroid clusters, collecting power-ups and money, fighting aliens and hunting lost treasure and ancient tech, all for glory. Everyone picks actions at the same time and resolves effects as the field scrolls, and you can team up or shoot each other. For one to five pilots, around 75 minutes, ages 13 and up.
Who it's for
You grew up with arcade shooters and want that feeling on a table, with friends or alone.
Not for you if…
You prefer quiet, planned games. The scrolling board punishes slow deliberation.
Vibe's take
Fast, chaotic and a little cheeky, like an arcade cabinet in slow motion. The board keeps scrolling, so you are always deciding between grabbing a power-up and not getting left behind.
