Space Explorers

This is one of those games I refer to as palate cleansers -- its a relatively short engine building game which can be completed in as little as 20-30m once you are familiar with it -- thus its a great game to play between longer games. It resembles Splendor, but, as with the game Gizmos (also an excellent short engine-builder), it adds a small mechanic which provides more depth than Splendor does. If you like Splendor (or Gizmos) youll probably like this game.

Love the art style and how it got my kids asking question about space travel. Fun and quick to play when you get the hang of it. Game makers were responsive to my questions and the quality of all components was *ahem* out of this world.
