Get ready for a space race where the only rule is self-preservation! In Selfish: Space Edition, you and your fellow astronauts are stranded, and there's only enough oxygen for one to make it home. The mission? Survive at all costs! Each turn is a critical decision: will you gather resources to advance, or use your action cards to sabotage others? Attack your rivals by stealing oxygen, push them back, or shield yourself from their schemes. But beware, space is treacherous! Wormholes, asteroid fields, and laser blasts are just some of the dangers lurking. Every step forward reveals a new space card, which could be your salvation or your downfall. Managing your oxygen is vital; run out, and you're out of the running. With a mix of luck, strategy, and plenty of cunning, this fast-paced, no-holds-barred card game will test your ethical limits (or lack thereof!). Packed with pop culture references and nerdy jokes, Selfish: Space Edition is the perfect pick for those who enjoy a competitive game with a touch of dark humor and a dash of space-faring desperation. Are you selfish enough to win?

What is the average playtime?
A game of Selfish: Space Edition takes about 20 minutes, making it quite fast.
How many players can participate?
The game is for 2 to 5 players, making it versatile for different group sizes.
Is this a game for children?
Although it may seem simple, the theme and "take that" interactions can be a bit intense for very young children. We recommend it for ages 10+.
Does the game involve a lot of reading?
The text on the cards is minimal and direct, with many visual and pop culture references, making it easy to understand after a few plays.
Can I be eliminated from the game before it ends?
Yes, player elimination is a mechanic in this game. If you run out of oxygen, unfortunately, you are out of the match.
Is it a strategic game or more luck-based?
It's a mix! There's strategy in how you use your cards and manage resources, but luck in card draws and space events also plays a role.
