ASTRONAUTS is the game that takes you to the edge of the solar system. An astronomically great game that’s fun, easy to learn, educational & highly addictive. Astronauts is the ultimate space game as you race your opponents to explore the planets & moons of our solar system & then return safely back to Earth. Explore Mars, the moons of Jupiter, Saturn’s rings, Neptune, the Kuiper Belt & more as you slingshot your way from planet to planet & use your booster rocket & hyperspace to speed your safe return. The further out you go the more points you get but the more difficult it becomes to return, so beware getting stuck in Deep Outer Space.
