SpaceShipped

SpaceShipped puts you in the shoes of an interplanetary trader flying a used ship, trying to make a quick buck. A wealthy magnate offers you a contract that could put you in charge of her fleet, but first you must prove you can grab rare crystals before the pirates do. The game is solo, card‑based, and you’ll buy and sell resources, upgrade your ship, hire crew, and install equipment—all with just 18 cards that fit in a wallet. Each turn you pick a planet, face random encounters, solar winds, and pirate attacks. Spending too much time repairing the ship lets pirates steal the crystals; not repairing enough risks ship destruction. The goal is to amass enough money to buy two exotic stones (or three if you’re daring) before the pirates do. Balancing trade, maintenance, and tactical decisions makes SpaceShipped a quick, tactical micro‑game, lasting 10‑30 minutes. The commodity speculation mechanic and space‑exploration theme add extra flair, while the minimalist design and portability make it perfect for travel or waiting rooms. If you love fast challenges, risk decisions, and sci‑fi settings, SpaceShipped is a 18‑card pick that fits in your pocket.
