Solenia

Players deliver goods between floating islands on a tiny world split into an eternal Day half and an eternal Night half. Over 16 rounds, each player plays one card onto a 5x5 grid, placing either on production islands to gain resources equal to the card’s value or on cities to fulfill delivery tiles that require specific resources. Cards must be placed adjacent to the central airship or to another card of the same player; playing a 0 card moves the airship and triggers removal and scoring of the board’s back strip, which is flipped and relocated to change the day/night configuration. Players collect gold stars for completed deliveries and resource management; the highest total wins.

    What a crap. The cards playing your game. You always can buy something. Totally waste of time. And just because there is a Zepelin included it doesn't make it a good family game. Theme falls flat. 16 turns and in every single turn you do the same boring thing.
