Planet-Spelet

This interesting Swedish space game is a spin and move game that has players travel though the solar system to distant planets where they collect radioactive elements or platinum. Players start with a spacecraft from Earth and head out into outer space. Mars, Jupiter and the other planets revolve in a 24 spaced orbit around the sun. Movement of planets and rockets are directed by a large disc in the center of the board that is spun by the players. The players rockets move to different orbits and planets by landing on a Cosmic Radiation cardboard strip that also rotates around he board (covering only one space across all orbits). Many hazards and difficulties are against the spaceships. Meteor showers, radioactive dust clouds, operating errors, space police, and much more. The object of the game is to bring home these riches to earth. The player, who first manages to return their spacecraft back to Earth with a full load of radioactive material or platinum is the winner.
