The night sky is divided into 88 Constellations. From those 88 Constellations, Asterisms are created as additional patterns. You and your fellow astral cartographers will map the night sky in this roll and write family friendly game. Each Constellation and Asterism card contains details about the pattern, providing for an educational experience as well.
On each player's turn, they will roll all of the dice. The active player is the only one to use the larger dice to plot a star. All of the other players, including the active player, will choose from the three smaller dice by picking two numbers for their chart coordinates and one for its research value.
The Constellation and Asterism cards have their own mapping patterns you must draw in your grid. As you complete cards, you earn victory points and other bonus actions.
Your research area is where you will use one die per turn to advance your equipment and funding resources.
Rounds are based on the number of players and final scoring is tallied from your completed constellations and asterisms, as well as any funding you have unlocked in your research hub.
