In MLEM: Space Agency, the cats have conquered Earth so naturally their next target is the cosmos. This push-your-luck family strategy board game sends feline astronauts into deep space as rival space agencies compete to explore the galaxy, collect valuable discoveries as well as become the most successful cosmic pioneers.
 
Each cosmic expedition begins with a rocket launch led by one player. The commander rolls the dice to determine how far the ship travels, while every astronaut aboard faces the same tantalising choice: stay on the rocket to venture further or disembark on the current planet or moon before things go spectacularly wrong.
 
The further the rocket travels, the greater the rewards can become but every extra step increases the danger. If the rocket crashes, all astronauts aboard return home empty-pawed while the Cosmic Failure marker moves closer to the final space. Sometimes the bravest decision is to keep flying. Other times, the smartest move is knowing when to bail out.
 
Across the game, players compete to place their astronauts on planets and moons that provide valuable points. Once a player has placed their eighth astronaut or the Cosmic Failure marker reaches its final space, the race ends. Total your discoveries, then see which space agency has gathered enough points to claim cosmic supremacy.
 
With simple rules, lively dice rolling, strategic timing and a generous dose of feline chaos, MLEM: Space Agency is a fantastic family board game for players who enjoy push-your-luck challenges with an out-of-this-world theme.
