1. Table Talk and Negotiation
Moonrakers requires regular interaction and negotiation with your table-mates. If you don't like making deals or talking to people, it's not for you.
2. Adaptive Play

THE STARS
Moonrakers is a deck-building game that mixes temporary alliances, negotiation, and ship-building with traditional deck management for a unique and competitive gameplay experience.
57 Crew & Ship Part Cards with a unique special ability & art
*184.3+ billion possible deck and ship combinations.
Constant off-turn play
Regular negotiation keeps everyone at the table engaged.
Highly replayable
A random marketplace means a winning strategy in one game likely won't work in the next. Can you adapt?

Win the game
The first to 10 Prestige wins. Earn prestige and credits by completing contracts. Use credits to hire crew, build your ship, and complete objectives.
Negotiate Alliances
Completing difficult contracts might require you to negotiate short term alliances—and a split of their rewards.

Hire Your crew
Crew get added to your deck and have special abilities that help you accomplish contracts.
Build Your Ship
Use credits to purchase ship parts. Ship parts add cards to your deck and give your ship special abilities.

Risk vs reward
As the rewards of contracts increase, so do the risks. Accomplishing contracts without accounting for hazard can lead to losing more than you gain.

Natural Catchup Mechanics
The players with less prestige will be more willing to work together, helping them catch the leaders.
No Dogpiling
Leaders will find themselves with fewer allies — but no player can make a contract harder for another player or cause them to lose prestige.
Super close games
The natural balance of Moonrakers means nearly every game reaches a nail-biting conclusion.
