Space Craft — Prices

Space Craft drops 2 to 4 players into a futuristic scrapyard, where each of them is racing to build the most impressive rocket using discarded parts scattered across the board. The game runs for 30 to 60 minutes and carries a 2/5 weight on BGG, meaning it’s light and easy to pick up but still offers a touch of strategy.

At the start, each player selects a token and begins moving around a grid board. Moves are simple: advance one space forward, backward, left or right, but the token’s position can open or block paths to scrap tiles. When a player lands on a tile with a piece, they claim it and add it to their construction pool.

Scrap pieces are used to assemble the rocket’s components—body, engines, fins, and propulsion systems. Each part has a point value and, when a player completes a set of parts, they can fulfill a contract. Contracts are cards that require a specific number of pieces of a type or a combination of pieces. Completing a contract awards extra points at the end of the game, which can be decisive.

In addition, there’s a shared market where players can buy or trade parts. The market operates with price cards that shift each round, forcing players to decide whether it’s worth paying more for a rare part or waiting for a better deal.

The ultimate goal is to finish your rocket. As soon as someone assembles all the necessary parts, the game ends immediately and the winner is the player with the most points, adding up the points from parts and contracts. The learning curve is quick, but the game offers a solid amount of tactical depth when choosing when to buy, trade and focus on contracts.

Space Craft is perfect for families who love sci‑fi themes and for anyone looking for a simple construction game with a bit of strategic flair.
