Description

In the Stars is a 1 to 6 player roll and draw constellation game. In the game, players will create two constellations (three in a solo game). In the turn, the active player will choose a blue die and roll it with the rest of the non-blue dice. Then, the active player chooses three dice to draw and creates a constellation. Other players will choose a type from the rest of the three other dice to draw and create their own constellation.

When a player completes their constellations, the game will end when the last player finishes their final turn. Players score points based on the constellations created, the number of alien visits, and wormholes discovered. The player with the most points wins the game.
