Your civilization’s great migration was just beginning when something went wrong. From your place on the bridge, you watched the lead colony ship explode, starting a chain reaction of fire and death that wiped out half the fleet in an instant... Now, half a galaxy away, you fly under unfamiliar skies. You have no way back to the fleet, no way of knowing if there is even a fleet to return to. You press on alone, lost, in search of a planet to call your own. You will find it or die. A game of Lost Ship consists of encounters between your ship and alien threats as you leap from system to system in search of a habitable planet. Between battles, you will search for materials, make repairs, care for your pilots, and search for a planet your people can inhabit. If you find home, you win. If your ship runs out of fuel or is destroyed, you lose, and your civilization dies with you. —description from the designer
