What is Skymines

Fifty years ago, humanity began mining the Moon and the asteroids, and for decades that task was firmly kept in the hands of the World Government. But the turmoils of recent years have caused this enterprise to collapse. Now, adventurous companies and private investors take to the sky to revive this mining network.

As investors, you try to earn the most CrypCoin over the course of seven rounds. You do this by investing mined resources in companies and by spreading their outposts. You can improve your earnings by supporting your scientists’ research and by having them collect precious helium-3.

The heart of Skymines is a unique card programming and hand management system that requires careful and clever planning. It provides deep player interaction by letting you invest in any of the four companies as you see fit.

And as the combination of company abilities changes each game, there are endless synergies and strategies to explore.

Se lo compré a Yamakasi el 12/04/2024 por 35€. No sabía mucho del juego, pero ví que tenía un 8 con 2300 votaciones en la bgg.. y que era una reimplentación del mombasa.. y bueno, malo no podía ser. El precio, por lo que estuve mirando en wallapop parecía justo. Aún no lo he probado. Probado el 21/04/2024 con mi madre. Es un buen juego. Muy entretenido. siete rondas en las que las acciones del jugador consiste en incrementar el valor de las empresas mineras que explotan la luna de acuerdo a las participaciones que tengas, conseguir dinero, y avanzar en tracks de helio-3 e investigación.

Contiene programación de acciones, quer podría ser una de mis mecánicas favoritas. Va de subir tracks, el de investigación me gustaba bastante, las distintas compañías tenían acciones especiales que podían darle vidilla y el tema de reclamar mayorías molaba. Como muchos juegos de hacer puntos, odio el último turno xD
