Description Edit | History

This game is played in real time to a 30 minute soundtrack (or timer) with all players playing simultaneously. Players start at their own planet with a power generator and a mine. They race to generate goods and deliver them to each other (earning VP for both the player and the recipient) or to the neutral planets. They can also do research to improve their abilities, and bring new cards into play. Everything, from generating goods, to moving ships, to playing new cards, requires at least 1 flip of a timer. The catch is that each player only has 2 timers! At the start it seems like you have all the time in the world; very soon, though, it becomes a frantic race to make as many deliveries as possible!

A second copy can be added to expand the game up to 8 players.

Released at Essen 2006.

Expanded by:

The rules are extended by a two-player variant.

3 Tuck Box v2_2 for Space Dealer Cards in .pdf format
This is a tuck box for the Space Dealer Cards. It prints onto A4 (I use 220gsm photo paper) and then needs cutting out, scoring and gluing. There is a pictorial guide in the "Creative" images section. The image is the box front image uploaded to BGG by Tobias Stapelfeldt (the game designer) and the card list on the back is an edit of Sterling Babcock's SD_Card_Catalog_V4.xls spreadsheet. v2_2 has some cosmetic improvements over v2_1 especially at the joins between sides. However, frankly I can't tell v2_1 and v2_2 apart side by side after construction.
