    Description

    Inspired by pop culture science fiction like Star Trek®, Farscape®, Battlestar Galactica®, Robotech®, Expanse® and Firefly® - Cheeky Dingo Games and Layman Kingsford bring you a tabletop game adventure unlike any other. Starship Crewpers engenders the experience of crewing a starship while undertaking missions that will fundamentally effect the plot of an ongoing galactic saga.

    In a galaxy where every culture depends upon the Situdel Parliament to maintain the flow of species-specific food, life has been relatively unruffled for centuries. Now, from unknown interstellar origin, comes the galaxy’s first contact with alien life and it is hostile. One solar system has nearly been eradicated and all attempts to communicate with the invaders have proven fruitless.

    With the Situdel Fleet allocating the majority of its resources to defending the population on the war front, you will begin your Fleet deployment by taking your small ship on patrol around a remote sector of space. Support from the central government and the rest of the Fleet is thin so you and your crew will be responsible for maintaining order in the region.

    This worker placement and polyomino puzzle game has players drawing custom crew meeples from a shared bag to deploy them into custom polyomino tiles. The polyominos - or meepleOminos, if you will - must then be maneuvered across you starship board triggering worker placement slots as they pass over them. Play cards from hand to activate special effects such as repairing your ship, relieving stress and injuries from the crew and manipulating the polyomino tiles to maximize their scoring when they eventually get placed onto the mission grid for victory points.
