The card game Shooting Star is set in a distant galaxy, where ruthless Space Admirals compete to earn the respect of their commander – the Dark Invader himself – by destroying everything that comes into range: starships, meteors, planets... Do you have what it takes to rise up the ranks and take command of the Dark Invader’s Fleet? Your goal is to score more points than the others by destroying Planets, capturing Moons, destroying your opponents’ Destruction cards, and completing your own Secret Missions.

It's as easy as 1-2-3: 1. Secretly position your weapons on a planet (by playing your card face down). 2. Reveal your weapon and blast the other planets (by turning your card over). 3. Blast a planet enough and your can capture it! Earn even more points by capturing moons and completing your Secret Mission!

Contents: 110 cards (49 Planets, 45 Destruction cards, 15 Missions, 1 Dark Invader), rules.
