📖 About This Game
A Components: Looney Pyramid Games spaceship maneuvering game.
You will need 36 Looney Pyramids - 3 trios each of 4 colors (Red, Green, Blue, Yellow), a Pyramid Die, and a Starship Captain tin (or similar circular object, like a coaster or a CD).
Colonial ships move by distorting space-time and reappearing at the outer edge of a warp field. After they move, they fire energy beams that teleport other differently-colored ships far across the galaxy. Your mission: harness these warp energy beams to transport a diverse collection of ships, and be the first to form a complete colony!
You and your opponents move ships around the play area via the “warp” using the Starship Captain tin lid to measure distance and direction of travel. After a ship warps, it fires its teleportation beam at another target ship. You roll the pyramid die to find out if the beam successfully teleports the target ship out of the play area and into your own colony.
The goal is to be the first to teleport a combination of ships into your colony: The first player to colonize either two monochrome trios of ships or two ships of every color, wins the game!
