About Mercenaries of Gridaris, from BoardGameGeek:

In the cosmic expanse, Dartondelous and Doink created Gridaris, a planet teeming with life but tainted by betrayal. As empires rise and fall, the land becomes a battleground for the Cheese People, Mops, Wizards, Monsters, Voidlings, and Business Drones, each vying for sovereignty. The fate of Gridaris hangs in the balance, its destiny shaped by the eternal struggle between light and darkness. It's up to you and your Empire to have the right Mercenaries fit for the final battle that will determine who truly rules Gridaris. Mercenaries of Gridaris is a quick card-based space-capturing game where 2-5 players compete against each other by hiring ridiculous mercenaries to capture and control the last 16 battlefields in the land of Gridaris. MoG combines funny characters I have created over the years, lore from the fantasy books I have (half) written over the years, and is heavily inspired by the video games I grew up on! -description from the designer
