Lost Galaxy
The Intergalactic card game
Expand, protect, survive! A sun is going Super Nova and each player tries to evacuate as many planets of his faction – Sirians, Cyborgs, Broods or Mechs - as possible for victory points.; each faction commands a special ability.
A smart device with the game App is laid down as the center of the solar system in the middle of eight display slots, and the desired parameters are entered into the app There are 120 cards. 16 special cards are taken out, however, for the first games. Karts in the stack represent planets of level 1 to 4; planets of level 1 can be placed on any free of the eight display slots; other planets are placed with a difference of plus/minus one level to the previous planet, color is irrelevant. A spaceship is put on a planet of Level 4 and evacuates the planet, you take the stack. After a few introductory games you can include the special cards into the deck; they influence the planet stacks. The app determines the – always random – time when the sun goes Super Nova and introduces events and also satellites for faction advantages. When the sun goes Super Nova, the game ends, and you calculate your victory points.
A tad hectic, a bit of luck when drawing cards, a bit of watching stacks and hoping that you draw a spaceship before someone else evacuates the stack that you want. A very well working, felicitous and basically simple addition to the genre of hybrid games.
