Beyond the Stars is a quick drafting game about exploring the galaxy. Amass your crew, gather resources, make discoveries, make contact with civilizations, fight monsters and face the unknown. The game is meant to be played with 3-4 players and the goal is to acquire the most points by the end of the game. Every Crew Card will have a “play” rule set and a “keep” rule set. The “play” rule set will be relevant for rounds while the “keep” rule set will only come into play at the end of the game when calculating final points. The winner of the game is the player with the highest points after "play" and "keep" points are totaled. —description from the designer
