## Description
The year is 2123, and Earth is becoming uninhabitable. Humanity needs a new home among the stars! In Cosmic Run, you and your crew (or just yourself!) become space explorers in a frantic race to colonize planets before meteors obliterate them. It's a fast-paced sci-fi adventure, packed with dice rolls and that thrilling 'should I push my luck a bit further?' tension.

On your turn, the goal is to roll dice and decide where to invest that luck: on exploration tracks leading to new worlds, or on alien cards that grant special powers. Some tracks require matching dice, and the most valuable ones demand several identical ones! But beware: once a die is committed, it's set. There's no going back. You must choose between playing it safe, ensuring steady progress, or daring to tackle the most coveted tracks, betting everything on luck. Aliens can become your best allies, giving you that extra boost to speed up your journey. You can play cooperatively, with everyone working together against the game, or competitively, with each player for themselves. Get ready for a space race where luck and strategy go hand in hand!
