Star Scrappers: Orbital

Players start with a core module tile and develop an orbital space station over five rounds by paying for and placing module cards. Each round players draw a hand, receive income and crew determined by their station layout, then take turns building, activating module abilities, playing events, repairing or passing. Crew tokens fuel many module effects while money buys new modules. At the end of each year players score points for having the majority in each of six module types; after the fifth year the player with the most victory points wins. The game is set in a space-western asteroid-belt setting where corporations compete to house miners and exploit valuable resources.
