Print and Play-Planet Run

I recently came across one of Experimental playground’s earlier posts for this year, a print and play game, Planet Run. Planet Run is comprised of a game board, game tokens, markers, and rules. The game itself will print on one sheet and the instructions on another.

To get yourself in the right frame of mind before attempting to play this game I recommend that you listen to this LibriVox recording (a MP3) of the Repairman. The MP3 runs for about 30 minutes and narrates a story about a futuristic repairman that needs to visit a plant inhabited by lizard like creatures to repair an ancient relay tower.

This is a one person dice driven game. The scheme of the game is as such. Your ship is hit by asteroids and you are forced to land to on a nearby planet to make repairs. While there you will need to explore the planet to find materials to fix your ship and food to keep yourself alive.
