Stuck on a dying world, a handful of people take their only chance at survival, a junked space ship. All they need to do is keep it together and working to reach their new home. How hard can that be?
Starship Deathtrap is a cooperative game that can be played solo or up to 5 players. Players will control the movements and actions of one or more of the 5 crew members, each having their own unique expertise.
With the ship starting damaged, the crew is already behind. Each turn consists of 4 phases: Crew phase, disasters spread phase, new disaster phase, and advancement phase.
Crew Phase: Each crew member uses their allotted actions to move, activate ships systems, or fight disasters.
Disaster Phase: Any unstopped disasters will spread causing more problems for the crew.
New Disaster Phase: Each turn a new disaster will be determined (where and what type) randomly by a die roll.
Advancement Phase: Advance your energy level and distance to destination meter.
