How to play: Space Cubes

About Space Qubes, from BoardGameGeek:

Survive the onslaught of Q.u.B.E.s and save your stranded spaceship! In Space Qubes, you and your crew are stranded in space, aboard a damaged research ship in 2273, under attack by alien lifeforms called Q.u.B.E.s (Quantum Biological Entities). These acidic, qube-shaped creatures damage systems and push toward your vulnerable drive core. Your mission? Defend the ship, repair the critical communication system, and send a distress signal before it's too late! Gameplay Overview: Explore and Repair: Search rooms for spare part cards, weapons, and gadgets while repairing damage to keep the ship functional. Defend and Attack: Fight Q.u.B.E.s that spawn each turn. Damaged rooms increase the danger, escalating the challenge. Manage Resources: Balance health, oxygen, energy, and limited inventory space to survive and complete your objective. Each round, players act cooperatively, using actions to move, search, fight, or repair, while Q.u.B.E.s spread, attack, and advance toward the drive core. If the drive core is destroyed, all players are knocked out, or Q.u.B.E.s overrun the ship, you lose. To win, repair the control room with the spare parts. Fast-Paced, Modular Fun: With unique characters, variable room setups, and escalating tension, every play-through offers a fresh challenge. Space Qubes is a compact 2-4 player game, perfect for families and casual gamers, delivering a light yet thrilling cooperative experience packed with dramatic moments and strategic decisions.
