What is the game about?

Cities on the moon, humanity's greatest achievement. Supplies loaded, colonists in their seats, every last screw meticulously planned. Then the colony starts running. An airlock fails, a robot receives wrong instructions, a tunnel collapses, and the colonist count slowly declines. The title makes no secret of where this is headed, and Franz Vohwinkel's illustrations keep it light enough to avoid being bleak.

How do you play the game?

Together you build a shared stack from which events are drawn, and most of these cost your colonists their lives. On your turn, you play cards to expand your own colony, install machines, or get your people to safety. What you add to that stack also affects your opponents, so you help determine how hard disaster strikes. The game stops as soon as a colony is empty or the event stack runs out. Whoever then has the most survivors wins.

This is the ideal game for...

You can play this game with 1 to 5 players, from 14 years old. The duration is approximately 45 to 90 minutes. The language of the game is English.

How is the game experienced?

Vaccarino has created something here that is about destruction rather than construction, and that is refreshing after twenty years of building engines. Reviews widely agree that the first few plays are mostly confusing and that the game only truly opens up afterwards. The chaos cannot be fully controlled, so those who like to have everything under control will likely stumble. What appeals to me is the tone: grim on paper, cheerful at the table. The art lies in letting your own disaster unfold just a little slower than everyone else's.
