In stellar space you will have to complete increasingly complex and difficult challenges.
You will need to be able to sort out all the tiles in the game, so you can move freely between planets, satellites and stars, avoiding dangerous asteroids and aliens. Only the most skilled and attentive astronauts can do it!
You can play alone, putting your logical skills to test, or share missions with your friends.
60 mission cards
1 board game with two different backgrounds
12 game tiles to put into place
An instruction booklet with the solutions
Text comprehension and logic challenges
“In the starry space, between planets, stars and satellites, you will have to solve challenges which become increasingly difficult and complex to decode, while avoiding dangerous asteroids and aliens...”.
Space Mission is a galactic journey full of logic challenges for kids ages 6 and up. By working individually or collaborating with classmates, the players have to create new space itineraries by following the directions of each mission in order to finish it successfully.
The game develops visual problem solving, logic and linguistic skills and encourages computational thought.
Game contents
The game is composed of:
A double sided game board presenting 2 scenes with different levels of difficulty
12 tiles with paths to reach the planets, satellites and asteroids (and an additional 4 blank tiles to be used if necessary)
60 mission cards with directions about the mission to complete, with 3 levels of differentiation based on difficulty: First flights | Expert flights | Galactic flights
How to play
Attention! The challenge can get complicated when asteroids or alien attacks appear!
Didactic objectives
Space Mission is a game that ignites computational thinking and coding, favouring strategic planning in a problem solving context while stimulating logic skills. Furthermore, it promotes social skills and peer mediation which are used to achieve a common goal.
