Rocketmen
Compete to build the most successful space program by assembling mission components, upgrading technologies, and launching spacecraft. Players draft and customize decks of modules and actions, manage resources, and decide when to commit missions for points. Play proceeds quickly with repeated short rounds of card play, purchases, and launches; timing and prediction of opponents’ moves affect outcomes as much as card optimization.

Garfield8.0 #2.1 Spielmatte + Spieler-Matten vorhanden im Dach Deluxe-Box vorhanden I really like this game. Straightforward gameplay with a nice theme. Of course the mission card drawing is luck depenndent, but you always can stop drawing and prepare better.

T3NjYXI4.6 It's cheap and does it save it from the selling app. Very thematic, bits of "push your luck" mostly at the beginning of the game. Huge snow ball effect, if you fail some early missions in the early game, you're cooked,
