Star Explorer
Players act as astronomy enthusiasts mapping fragments of the night sky across personal rotating map boards. Each round, a constellation card is revealed and players rotate their maps to locate the required stars, then mark the constellation following specific placement rules. Points are scored for marking the correct stars and for placing constellations in the right positions relative to the map. The game emphasizes spatial alignment and careful placement to avoid larger constellations overshadowing smaller ones; the highest total score after all cards determines the winner.
