Description

In Ruship, two players go head-to-head in a battle for planetary supremacy. The Human and Alien players are separated by 18 spaces, with the goal of dealing 3 damage to their opponent's planet. With easy-to-learn rules, this 10-15 minute game is perfect for a quick showdown. Each player has a fleet of ships or flying saucers at their disposal, which can be moved using the roll of two six-sided dice. As players navigate the grid, they can capture enemy vehicles, move their Mothership or Vortex, and even deal damage to their opponent's planet. But that's not all - each time a player takes damage, they earn a special power that gives them an edge in the game. These permanent power-ups can be used to re-roll dice, move extra spaces, or even capture enemy vehicles more easily. With its simple yet strategic gameplay, Ruship is a thrilling science fiction wargame that's out of this world.
