After a dark decade of pirating and pillage, the Solar Federation has managed to locate the base of the dreaded Vropt in the vicinity of Mars. With the loyalist forces decimated, the mission to cleanse the pirate menace has been entrusted to a small squadron of four aces: former living legends now turned bounty hunters. Martian Slayers is a free Print-and-Play cardgame that reproduces a 16-bit shmup videogame from the 90s era! Each player takes control of a ship with 3 lives, 2 or 3 bombs, and some Maneuvers. You are supposed to kill as many enemies as possible while minimizing the incoming fire, because any hit will make our ship explode. —description from the designer
