In Starline Industries, players take on the roles of galactic merchants seeking to make their mark on the universe (and impress their boss). Each turn players mark routes as they connect solar systems, gathering goods and credits along the way. Hoard goods for points and spend credits on valuable upgrades to your starship while dodging asteroids and pirates sent by other players. Each round three cards are drawn with special abilities based on the places you visit, allowing bending (and breaking!) of the rules in your favor. Sets of cards are used in coordination with special competitive goals, allowing for unique set-ups as you mix-and-match strategic scenarios. Starline Industries is a free-to-play printable game designed during the COVID-19 crisis, and will remain available here and through the publisher's website forever, with continued support. —description from the publisher
