From BoardGameGeek

A space-based cooperative multiplayer experience; a 2-4 player survival game where outrunning a supernova is the prime goal, all while managing food and fuel reserves, maintaining a ship, as well as player health. While doing so; you will encounter hardships from space giraffes to pirates that will work to prevent you from progressing. You begin with a randomly selected ship, that may or may not have everything you need. You'll work together as a team to determine the best course of action. Do you need more food or fuel? Or is the Supernova right behind you, and you need as much distance as possible? Do you have to leave someone behind in order to save the other three crew members? And who brought onboard the radioactive sugar gliders?! With plenty of randomized events, each and every turn is full of action and suspense, and no game will be the same! You can expect the average playthrough to be between 45 to 60 minutes in length; that is, assuming you live that long. Space is unforgiving, and so is this game. -description from the designer
