Jump Drive

Players compete to expand a galactic civilization by developing technologies and settling alien worlds using a shared deck of cards. Each turn, players simultaneously choose roles that determine actions like drawing, settling, producing, or trading, then resolve those actions to play cards as developments or worlds and score points from combos and resources. The game uses streamlined rules and shorter playtime compared with its parent system, emphasizing quick card drafting, tableau building, and engine development to assemble the most valuable combinations.
