STARSHIP SHOWDOWN
Can you cobble together the best ship and become the last captain standing?
As a starship captain, you’ve made a lot of enemies in the depths of space. Out here, ships are in a constant state of repair, and the captain that can cobble together the best hunk of junk usually wins. Limping back to the scrapyard from your most recent “trade negotiation”, you’ll have to hire crew, install engines and weapons systems, and maybe even adapt some alien technology to your battered vessel and fast! You’re not the only captain at this particular scrapyard...
What's it like?
Starship Showdown is a competitive card game in which you secretly draft cards to create your ship (in the style of Sushi Go!). Then, once the scrap has run out, all ships are revealed and begin to duke it out in a unique hybrid of Munchkin and King of Tokyo.
Strategically draft cards in secret to build your ship. Will you build a speedy rocket, or maybe a battleship bristling with lasers? Maybe you'll rely on hiring compentent crew or alien technology to win!
Outlast your opponents any way you can. Work together to weaken big threats, quietly backstab, and use the tools at your disposal to be the last captain standing.
Replay again and again. Because of the group drafting and variety of cards, you'll never build the same ship twice! And since games last less than 45 minutes, you can get right back in the action quickly.
