Mission Catastrophe

Players take the role of alien crew members aboard a damaged deep-space mining vessel racing to reach the last functional escape pod. On each turn, players move through ship modules, collect supplies, play Operations cards, use a unique role ability, and decide whether to repair damaged systems or search for the escape pod. The ship accumulates damage over time and can explode if repairs fall behind, so players balance cooperation and self-preservation as opportunities to escape diminish. Multiple ship modules, crew roles, and play modes change setup and objectives for varied replayability.
