Description

Rickety Ships (aka: Space Nertz) uses 2-4 standard decks of playing cards and poker chips or pocket change to partially simulate the experience of the space-truck building phase of "Galaxy Trucker". This game is in no way meant to be a build your own "Galaxy Trucker" game nor should it be played instead of playing "Galaxy Trucker." Instead, Rickety Ships is meant more to serve as a new experience for groups who regularly play speed games like "Nertz" or "Pick Two!"

Rickety Ships is played over 3 rounds. In each round, each player seeks to build his own ship from the supply of cards in the middle of the table, attempting to earn as many of the 5 victory points available at the end of each round. At the end of the 3rd round, the player who has earned the most of the 15 available victory points is the winner.
