Monster auf der Flucht

Galactic resettlement!

 

The star in the home system of the monsters in the center of the galaxy is turning supernova and the monsters need new planets. Players must assist the monsters and at the same time bet which monster will settle the most beautiful planet.

At the start each player receives one open and one secret favorite in the shape of a card or a tile. One third of the planet cards is placed face down as a movement track, the remaining ones are stacked for a draw pile. All monsters flee the super nova, regardless of the number of players; at the beginning all monsters start at the inner end of the spiral. Each player starts with two planet cards. In your turn you draw a card and play a card for an action: You can move a monster forward to the next empty card, only one monster per card is allowed. A card showing only one monster you can also use as your second open favorite card, if this exceeds the maximum number of favorites you must discard one of them. Other actions are swapping favorites with another player or chance positions of two monsters. When the draw pile is empty you draw the currently last card in the spiral, starting at the inner end. The game ends when either a monster moves to the last card at the spiral end or if someone would have to draw a card with a monster standing on it. Then you place the scoring tiles next to the monsters and each player scores the respective points for his favorites. The monster furthest ahead will NOT score you the most points!

A fun and fine movement game, a bit of strategy in betting and moveing monsters evens out with the chance element of drawing cards.
