Compact, tense and well thought out dedicated 2-player game.
This is a really well planned and thought out game with clever mechanics and nothing left to chance or dice rolls. It's refreshing to find a game solely designed for two players. The overall size of the box is compact (not as small as the Tiny Epic series, but close) which makes it rather portable- great for family camping trips but also not taking up too much room in a bergen for use in more remote locales between friends. The graphics are pretty good and the game pieces are fairly rugged too. With three phases to the game, the last being somewhat more high stakes than the other two, the tension remains high throughout the 20-30min play time. Well worth a look.

Great game - clunky rule book
If there was ever a game that needed to be 'reskinned' this is it.Fantastic 2 player game, and worth buying if you don't mind reading/re-reading the rule book a few times.The game itself is not that complex, it just doesn't do the best job of explaining your options, and so it takes a few play-throughs to really get the hang of it.Good fun though.

In this game, luck alone will take you nowhere...
This is an excellent 2 player game. Above average difficulty learning curve but it rewards at the end. You have to constantly sabotage the other player efforts to win credits by removing their extractors from planets and by other means.A very cutthroat game with lots of brain.My strongest recommendation
