Space Trucker

Every planet on your route wants its cargo delivered, and your fuel budget is thin. Time your slingshots, thread the asteroid fields, and reach the final planet in 30 days or less. Space Trucker is a thinky solitaire card game where you manage three resources: credits, fuel, and time. Credits buy fuel and flexibility, fuel saves time, and time saves fuel. Every card you burn and every day you use costs points, and running short on any of the three can end your voyage. Win, and you score for whatever you have left, so even an easy deal asks how cleanly you can fly it. * Slingshot past planets to speed up, slow down or change direction * Enter orbit by matching your speed to the planet’s mass, burning fuel to make up any difference * Buy fuel at each dock: regular fuel that comes into your hand immediately, or cheaper Cryo-fuel that thaws until the second day after you buy it * Earn titles, from Rookie to Slingshot Ace, with three wins in a row * After each voyage, Game Review compares your play with Expert, the built-in computer player: its score on the same deal, and how it would have flown each leg from your position * Co-op Mode: two or more players fly one ship together without talking, taking turns as the pilot * Plays in your browser on desktop or phone, and saves your voyage and record as you go This is the app version of my tabletop game, played with a standard deck of playing cards. The official rulebook, with a day-by-day example voyage and a picture of the table layout, is in the Download section on the game's page.
