Poor, ever so clumsy Zoid has committed a big boo-boo, an mistake of astronomic propositions, so to say. Zoid's little accident set off a chain reaction that led to the destruction of an entire uninhabited planet. Luckily, Zoid was able to jump into his spaceship in time to escape the explosion. But to stay ahead of the planet's ravaging debris, he has to carefully navigate the asteroid field that surrounds it. Will you help Zoid get away? In Alien Getaway 1 to 4 players help Zoid to find his way through the asteroid field. Players will play cards to lay out an escape route for this little green man. However, Zoid is an impatient little bugger and if he travels too fast and gets off track, the active player will have to take a penalty. But, there are ways to get rid of penalties and taking a penalty might not always be as bad as it seems... Alien Getaway combines tile laying, press-your-luck dice rolling, and tactical set building mechanisms into a swift game that is out of this world! —description from the publisher
