About the game
Ready your biplane and prepare for a magical adventure! In The Little Prince: Rising to the Stars, you take on the role of an explorer on an exciting journey that begins at Grandfather's house and ends on the legendary planet of the Little Prince. The goal is simple yet enchanting: fly through the clouds to collect as many precious stars as possible. The game uses a movement system based on fox cards; you use these cards to navigate the sky, moving your plane according to the number shown. But don't think it's just mindless flying! The path is full of surprises. Landing on certain clouds might grant you stars, reveal secrets via a telescope, or even provide extra movement cards if you encounter a bird. Crossing the boundaries between boards can also trigger story tiles that add more stars to your collection. And here's a twist: if you land on a cloud occupied by an opponent, you can swap cards with them, adding a touch of direct interaction to the game. Strategy lies in managing your movement cards and deciding the best path to reach the final destination. Reaching the Little Prince's planet earns you a paper plane filled with stars, with a bonus for those who arrive first. Ultimately, victory goes to the player with the most stars in their collection. It is a fast-paced, visually stunning game, perfect for those seeking a lighthearted experience with meaningful choices. Ideal for families and anyone wanting to relive the magic of Saint-Exupéry's masterpiece in a dynamic and fun way.
