Skyward Republic

Players cooperate to construct a floating solarpunk republic while competing to score the most victory points. During the game, players draft faction resource cards and build an airspace tableau by launching Buildings, Extensions, Vehicles and Critters into their personal sky areas, using cog tokens and resources to pay for cards. A unique open ‘flip or pick’ draft gradually adds card options and pushes early choices. Benefactors provide scoring objectives and bonus abilities when players match their resource icons with built cards. Play proceeds in rounds until a player reaches a set number of Buildings; final scoring adds leftover cogs and card bonuses to determine the winner.
