This is a "futuristic checkers" style of game, and you even get spaceships based upon very familiar themes, shows, or genres that are very easy to recognize. The acrylic gameboard is 3-sided with triangular areas depicted upon this allowing for a third player to be introduced if so desired. You also get to choose which two kinds of spaceships you'd like for this, from a selection of over a dozen available types. In the box: Acrylic gameboard Rules 2-sets of metal-cast polished pewter spaceships A cloth storage bag for those pieces You have to order an additional set of the spaceships if you want to play a 3-Player game.
