Race for the Galaxy

PLEASE NOTE: 

We rescue damaged Board Games and save them from destruction, and together we're reducing waste in the world! The games components are all complete and in good condition - we make sure of that - and this also means our board games boxes (or shrinkwrap) sometimes have small dents and scratches (only the boxes have small damages). You can see these in the pictures. This means you get a new game at a bargain and we save the planet, what's not to like?

Shipping: We ship our orders between Monday 8am - Thursday 4pm.

Description:

In the card game Race for the Galaxy, players build galactic civilizations by playing game cards in front of them that represent worlds or technical and social developments. Some worlds allow players to produce goods, which can be consumed later to gain either card draws or victory points when the appropriate technologies are available to them. These are mainly provided by the developments and worlds that are not able to produce, but the fancier production worlds also give these bonuses.

At the beginning of each round, players each select, secretly and simultaneously, one of the seven roles which correspond to the phases in which the round progresses. By selecting a role, players activate that phase for this round, giving each player the opportunity to perform that phase's action. For example, if one player chooses the settle role, each player has the opportunity to settle one of the planets from their hand. The player who has chosen the role, however, gets a bonus that applies only to them. But bonuses may also be acquired through developments, so you must be aware when another player also takes advantage of your choice of role.
