📖 About This Game

Icarus Sun is a board game for 1-4 players. It is a steampunk inspired game of airship adventure through the sky. To win: At the end of the game, the player with the most victory points wins. How to play: 1. Each player selects a gadget to use. 2. Each player receives a "deep blue ore" as fuel. 3. Players flip through their deck to see how much fuel they need. If they can pay, they follow the instructions on the card. If not, the adventure is over for this round. 4. The player repeats flipping the deck until he/she cannot pay the required amount of fuel. You can use the gadget of your choice at any time during the phase indicated on the gadget. 5. Spend the gear (which serves as money) acquired as a result of the adventure to add a card of your choice to the deck. 6. Repeat the above process for approximately 8 rounds, calculate the victory points, and determine the winner.
