Each player picks a side — the Rebel Alliance (Luke, Leia, Han Solo, Chewbacca or R2‑D2) or the Galactic Empire (Darth Vader, Boba Fett or a Stormtrooper) — and tries to buy, rent and sell properties scattered across the themed board. Instead of houses, iconic Star Wars vehicles mark ownership: X‑wing fighters, TIE fighters, Corellian freighters and even Star Destroyers. The game's money consists of brass imperial coins, while the character pieces are pewter, giving it a collector's feel. Gameplay blends dice rolling for movement, auctions for lost purchases, player‑to‑player trading, and set collection to build monopolies. Player elimination looms, as anyone who runs out of cash may be forced out before the end. Each board is individually numbered and dated, making every copy unique for memorabilia fans. In about 60 minutes, 2 to 8 players can experience the Rebel‑Empire showdown, feeling the Force (or the fear) with each turn. It’s a nostalgic Monopoly mix with Star Wars magic, ideal for casual game nights or themed gatherings. ## FAQ ### How many players can join?
