About the game
What you do in a play session
Get ready for a quick space adventure! Micro Mars puts you in charge of a spaceship on a mission to repair it and get back home. It's a roll-and-write game, so all you need is a printed sheet, a pencil, and two dice. Each turn involves a decision: roll the dice, combine the results to form a movement, and plot your route on the map, dodging dangers like asteroids and meteorites. The goal is to collect 5 repair parts for your ship, and who knows, maybe you'll even find an oxygen balloon to give you an extra boost! But watch out, you only have 13 moves to complete the mission! It's the kind of game perfect for a quick play, whether solo or with a group, because it's super straightforward and easy to learn. Ideal for those who enjoy fast-paced, thematic gaming without the hassle. The language dependency is minimal, making it even easier for everyone. So, let's explore Mars and bring this ship back!
