How To Play *Star: Rules Summary

Welcome to the *Star universe! Let’s break down the rules so you can jump right in and start playing. Trust me, it’s a blast. Here’s how you set up, play, win, and handle special conditions in the game.

Setup

  1. First, lay out the game board on a flat surface. Make sure everyone can reach it.

  2. Then, distribute character cards to each player. Players choose characters they want to play with.

  3. Shuffle the deck of event cards and place it in the center of the board.

  4. Give each player five resource tokens to start with. These will come in handy later.

  5. Finally, place all game pieces on their starting positions as indicated in the game manual.

Gameplay

  1. Each player takes turns in a clockwise direction. When it’s your turn, you draw an event card and follow its instructions.

  2. After drawing a card, you can move your character. You can move up to three spaces on the board.

  3. Next, you can choose to perform one action. Actions include attacking an opponent, trading resources, or using a special ability.

  4. Players then collect resources based on the spaces they control on the board. Don’t forget to count your tokens!

  5. End your turn by checking if any special conditions have been met (more on that below).

Winning

  1. To win, you must complete your character’s unique objective. Check your character card for these details.

  2. If no one completes their objective after 10 rounds, the player with the most resource tokens wins.

  3. In case of a tie, the player who controlled the most spaces on the board wins.

Special Rules & Conditions

  1. Some event cards have special conditions that change the rules temporarily. Always read event cards carefully.

  2. If a character loses all their health, they must skip their next turn to recover.

  3. If a character collects all types of resource tokens, they can gain an extra turn once per game.

Now, you’re ready to play! Get your friends together, grab some snacks, and enjoy your time in the *Star universe. It’s going to be a wild ride!
