Space Alert board game English-language

Space Alert is a cooperative survival game for 2 to 4 players aged 14 and up. Players take on the roles of crew members of a spaceship sent through hyperspace to map the most dangerous sector of the galaxy. The pace of play is set by a CD with ten minutes of music per round; if no CD player is available, the event cards can serve as the timer instead. Within each round, the team must defend its ship while it charts the hostile zone.

Players do not compete against one another. Instead, they face the game's challenges together, and they choose the difficulty level themselves. The toughest missions demand very close teamwork.

The box contains a spaceship game board, action boards, flight path tiles, action and threat cards, heroic deed cards, damage tokens, a CD with 16 tracks, a ship's log, and a rulebook.
