Astra

Players take the roles of astronomers mapping a shared night sky, marking lines of stars on constellation cards to complete discoveries and claim reusable abilities. Turns are continuous until a set number of constellations are taken, then final scoring determines the most Fame. On a turn a player either Observe, spending Stardust to draw straight, continuous star lines (using Telescope tokens to start additional lines), or Rest to refill Stardust and reactivate card abilities that match the active Sphere. Completing a constellation grants the card’s reusable power while other players who contributed may choose an immediate boon based on how many stars they marked.

    What I liked: I guess art style is not so bad for my taste. Rules are pretty easy to learn. What I disliked: Gameplay felt plain and straight boring. As many people already mentioned, you often want to do nothing instead of actions. Didn't feel the theme much.
