Space Movers is a cooperative science fiction board game adventure for 2-7 players (solo variant available also). As a player, you become a crew member of the spaceship Liberty. Together, you and your fellow crew mates will complete a series of objectives to win the game. Every game of Space Movers tells a different story and there are two ways to tell that story. The first is with different sets of 5 Objective cards that continue the adventure that began in the comic. The base game will come with one of these sets. For those who need more variety, we added a 20-card Random Objective card deck to the base game. If you don’t want to follow the story line, you can complete 5 randomly chosen objectives from this deck. (Or more if you’re feeling lucky!)
Many of the cards that are played in the game require Skill Checks to be completed as an Action on your turn. Skill Checks are nothing new, but is the WAY they are completed in Space Movers that makes it unique. Let’s say 3 dice are needed for a particular Skill Check. You would roll onto the special roll board in the bottom of the game box. You don't throw the dice in all at one time. You roll them one at a time and because each player controls a die, multiple players will likely participate in the check. Each die must be a 5 or higher to succeed and ALL dice must be a success to pass the Skill Check so players will want to HIT previously rolled dice in order to increase the odds of success. . Once all numbered dice are rolled, a blank six-sided die is rolled into the box to give one last chance to change a result.
If you can complete the objectives while keeping enough resources and avoiding the watchful eye of the Universal Oversight, you win Space Movers!
