About the game
What you do in a play session
Flip Ships is a cooperative dexterity game that thrusts you and your teammates into a pulse‑pounding alien invasion. Each player controls a 3D ship that can be spun with a flick of the finger, firing at waves of enemies that flood the sky. The goal is to take down the mothership before it dominates the planet, as pilots bravely defend the earth. The flicking mechanic demands precision and timing, while bias introduces surprise elements that keep tension high. The Madison Game Design Cabal series brings vibrant visual design and sturdy components that fit the sci‑fi theme. The game runs with 1‑4 players, lasts 30‑45 minutes, and has a moderate complexity level, perfect for those who enjoy fast action and strategic cooperation. If you love dexterity challenges, space battles, and teamwork, Flip Ships is the game for you.
