From BoardGameGeek
In this solo rogue-like card game, you are a Warp-Lancer, a space captain for hire. You and your crew have been entrusted with a vital mission: deliver crucial information to the Federation headquarters before the Devot's armada can destroy what remains of society. During your turn, draw a Beacon card to determine what happens when you exit light-speed warp. Roll a die and follow the result in the case of an event or fight a ship with your equipped weapons and systems. You'll need to manage your available energy to power-up the appropriate systems for the situation at hand, keep track of your currency, missile ammunition, warp fuel and crew to survive the 5 sectors leading to the final boss fight. Find or buy new weapons and systems to upgrade your ship if you want to keep your crew alive and your ship's hull above the breaking point. Space is dangerous and victory can only be attained by defeating the enemy's flagship at the end of your journey. -description from designer
