Moonrakers is a game of shipbuilding, temporary alliances, and shrewd negotiation set in a space-faring future. The players form a loose band of mercenaries, but while they are united in name, actual alliances are shaky as players are pitted against each other in the quest to become the new leader of the Moonrakers.
Moonrakers is a deck-building game in which players choose Contracts to attempt alone or with Allies in order to gain Prestige and Credits. After negotiating terms with Allies, players use their decks of Action cards to play Thrusters, Shields, Weapons, Reactors, and Crew to fulfill the requirements on each Contract. Each type of Action card has additional effects such as extra Actions, drawing additional cards, and protecting players from Hazards encountered while attempting Contracts.
Players create powerful decks and gain special abilities by upgrading their ships and hiring Crew Members. This helps them accomplish more difficult and rewarding contracts alone, letting them keep more Prestige and Credits for themselves.
Allies negotiate who will receive the Prestige, Credits, and risk of Hazard from Contracts, but if you don't make your offers enticing enough players may be tempted to betray you! The first player to 10 Prestige wins, but be careful as hazards encountered on Contracts reduce your Prestige!
The Kickstarter edition includes the First Encounter mini-expansion with ~15 cards.

    Man this is expansions done right. I love the idea of being able to add one or all expansions without the hassle of having to replace too many components from the base game. I want to be able to just throw it all in and hit the ground running. These look awesome.

    Yeah, I'm going to insta-back this (which I almost never do). Player interaction is the main this I look for in games and this one seems to have it in spades. And IVgames is simply amazing. Veiled Fate is my new number one ever since I got it.

    My biggest criticism with the game was that towards the end the leader has to go solo and I want negotiating to be a necessity of the game but I feel towards the end it’s no longer there. Still love the game and hoping these expansions bring it to excellence

    I have been with IV since the original campaign. They did a fantastic job and loved playtesting the expansions and seeing what they have. super excited for my Mythic Mischief to arrive and for this campaign. First Encounter and Shard mini expansions have been super fun but looking forward to binding ties to increase negotiations more. Just a note the first encounter expansion was a Kickstarter exclusive and won't ever be available again except through giveaways or if you can get an original Kickstarter edition.

    Hi @Quackalope once again thanks for the great insight of the game!!! Moonrakers is being translated in my language in this campaign. I'm wondering if going all isn't a bit too much for a party that never played moonrakers once. Won't there be too much stuff?? But if we go only with the base game and maybe one extension won't we'll be frustrated at some point missing some other things? What is your advice for newcomers in this game? Thanks

    Nomad is the one I feel like I don't need, the other two I would really like to add into the base game. The game doesn't hit the table much, so I'll pick them up at retail/off their webstore down the line when I feel live played out the base game. That big box is sexy though 👀.

    You're not talking about the campaign, Luminor which is the 4th expansion and the puzzle game that comes with every IV Studio game campaign. And you should. Maybe in another video? Also there's a competition on their discord where you choose a faction and have to win in boardgames against other players from different faction to earn points for your faction.

    @@Quackalope Indeed, it’s so much better! Moonrakers was already my highest priority among board games besides Beast getting to retail, and this just further proves that. Granted, unofficial, unlicensed transforming collectibles and, more recently, the Monster Club TCG are vying for my fun funds the most, though. 🤑

    Why the fuck do people think this? It has literally nothing in common with munchkin. What on earth rule are you misunderstanding to make any of these comparisons? There is not a single mechanic or system these two games have in common.
