Backed this, it was just delivered. I’ve worked in board game development, currently own 200+ games and this is one of the best productions ive seen. Simple, slick, strategic, outstanding minimalist art direction, great box, insert, card quality. Clear as crystal well layed out manual, and one of the best developer made “how to play” videos ive seen. The mix of solo/co-op/competetive is insanely hard to pull off, but they nailed it here. Cheers

got an Instagram ad for this game and it piqued my interest so much that a few months later I bought it! Really great and beautiful game. The quality of everything is insane!

I really appreciate this video as it is super informative and professional but I still get the sense you are having fun and its not a chore to do a video

[Crojach]

You guys make some of the best explainer videos for your games. I like your games so much that I hit the "Back now" button first and then go through the campaign later because I already know you have another banger in store :)

Just received my kickstarter in the mail, I can't wait to play!!

Played it on Tabletop Sim, I'm in love. As soon as it's possible I'll get a physical copy. LOVE IT!!

This is a "all in" Game for me. Love the mechanics and the overall design. Hope for some nice SGs.

Okay-2 games played already and we LOVE it! We’ve had some epic moments and I cant wait to play again since I’m honing my skills each time. Thanks! Can’t wait to get Mystic Mischief next!

Hey, I got to try this out at GenCon! And I liked it so much that I backed it! One of your guys was nice enough to take a separate time slot to run me through it on his own, so thanks for that!

[nicka.]

This is the first game I've ever backed on Kickstarter.

I'm doing my prep work so I can get this to the table quickly when it arrives next week! I'm very excited to play Moonrakers!

Really enjoy this game. Just played with my family and excited to try it again

The music was awesome I can’t lie but in some moments I felt it was a little loud. Regardless, thanks for the great video!

Was hoping to watch the How to setup vid. Where's the it? I searched through IV Games's channel, and site but could not find it.

Just played my first solo game. Overall a fun little experience. A couple of questions the rules aren't 100% clear on:

1
When playing a Crew card from your hand that has an ability like for instance AT-0K: "Play as damage... ". Does that mean playing that card no longer counts towards the number of Crew needed to fulfill a contract?

2
When playing solo with the mercenary deck, it doesn't say anything about how the Hazard Dice on any contract is divided - let's say I can play 2 out 3 shields, and I "buy" the last shield from the mercenary deck. Can I then push 1 out of 2 Hazard dice over onto the mercenary? Since one shield comes from them? Or do they just count all together towards negating ALL hazard dice rolled by me?

[faruambient]

Thank you! While the design is great, as with so many board games written without user testing the manual is horrible to understand and frustrating. Why is there this additional shield card below the board ?

[jordanb]

Can another player only agree to ally if they have the right cards needed or can they go in on an alliance and "sabotage" a contract by not having the cards they claim to have?

[cmilioto]

great video! easy to follow, super clear instructions.

[Notsowisesage]

Looks really fun, I'm excited to back it!

In the german rulebook you wrote that i can spend 1 coin to discard one or any number of ship or crewmember cards (buying phase). Is that right?
