"A fast-paced chase through outer space!" A race to determine the fastest spaceship in the universe is on, right here in the Milky Way! Choose your machine--one of four UFOs with totally different handling--and take your places at the startling line. Each turn, use your "paths" to move closer to the finish line. You might move in arcs, zigzags, or even loops! But examine the racetrack closely before you choose a path to use. If you crash into a star, you won't get to move! Get in your opponents' way and make them work to pass you, or accidentally help them out by clearing out a comet from their path. Space Racers brings the tactile fun of movement templates to a fast and simple game that can be enjoyed with almost anyone. -description from the designer
