About the game

What you do in a play session

In Gravity Superstar, you're a space adventurer on a quest for precious stardust on a planet with wonky gravity. The game's brilliant twist lies in its pawn movement: you slide them one or two spaces, and then gravity takes over, making them fall until they land on a platform. This works because the pawns lie flat on the board, allowing movement up, down, left, or right. During this gravitational dance, you can collect stars for points, grab tokens for an extra turn, and even knock opponents' pawns off the board! The modular board ensures each game presents a fresh challenge, and hand management dictates your tactical options. It's a fast-paced game, with sessions lasting 15-30 minutes, perfect for 2-6 players who enjoy abstract strategy with a dash of humor and a theme reminiscent of classic video games. The complexity is low, making it accessible for newcomers, yet with enough depth to keep experienced players engaged. Get ready to defy physics and your friends in this stellar race!
