Space Craft

About this board game

Space Craft is a family board game for 2–4 players, with a listed play time of 60 minutes and around 15 minutes per player. Designed for ages 10 and up, it challenges eccentric scientists to build rockets from limited materials gathered at a city scrapyard.

Each player moves a pawn around the scrapyard board, collecting scrap tiles from the piles of discarded objects. These materials are then used to craft the pieces needed for a crazy, innovative rocket.

Building the rocket is only part of the challenge. Players can collect specific rocket elements to fulfill contracts, earning additional points that will count at the end of the game. Choosing which scrap to gather and how to turn it into rocket pieces shapes each player’s path toward launch.

• Move around the scrapyard to collect scrap tiles.
• Use collected materials to craft rocket pieces.
• Gather specific rocket elements to fulfill contracts.
• Earn points from completed contracts and your final result.

The game ends as soon as one player completes their rocket. The winner is the player with the most points, so finishing first is not the only consideration. In Space Craft, careful collection and contract fulfillment can make the difference between a rushed launch and a winning design.

Released in 2022, Space Craft brings a playful rocket-building contest to the table for families and groups of 2–4 players. With its scrapyard setting, limited materials, and race to complete a rocket, it offers a compact competition where every useful piece can help bring an eccentric scientist closer to space.
