Description

A century after the first humans landed on the moon, valuable mineral deposits were discovered on the dark side of the moon. The resultant volatile market for these sought after gems attracts interest from far and wide; fortune seekers, runaways, fugitives. As the leader of a team of Moonies, you must mine various minerals, and manipulate the market to make enough credits to upgrade your spaceship and move on to bigger and better endeavours. Moonies is an extra-terrestrial card game where 1-4 players must use a novel card drafting mechanism to search for the right cards to complete their set, in order to maximize the payout they will receive. They can also choose to use special action cards to draw more cards, start additional mining operations, or influence the prices of the 4 different gems before ultimately calling the buyer, and selling what they’ve mined. The first lunar leader to get to 60 credits wins! —description from the designer
