Mars-Odyssee 2010 (2002)

2-4 players race to the red planet of Mars. This game comes packaged in a deluxe wooden crate. Most game materials are wooden, along with some hand silk-screened cards. Each player has a rocket with several wooden parts, including a capsule, fuel stages, tail section, and drive. In a twist, the playing area is vertical. Three long poles for the trajectory to Mars, which is a red sphere placed at the top. Play cards to blast off from the launch pad, and race to Mars. But you must contend with your fellow voyagers, asteroids, meteorites, and even a black hole.
