Fill the sky with stars and catch them as they shoot! 

The stars are out, and players take turns spotting their color stars in the sky by playing constellation cards to the map. Once the sky is full of stars, they start to twinkle, or flip to the reverse color. When the same color stars create a line across the night sky, they shoot and disappear! The first stargazer to catch 5 shooting stars is the winner!

Ruby T. ★★★★★

Twenty minutes was the perfect length for my six-year-old's attention span, and she actually asked to play again right after. The shooting star mechanic had her giggling every time she caught one.

Andrew Z. ★★★★★

Played this with my neighbor's kid and we finished two rounds in under 30 minutes, which is perfect for his attention span. The shoot-the-star mechanic is simple enough for a 6-year-old but still makes you think about timing. Mensa recommending it actually makes sense.

Thomas Q. ★★★★★

My six-year-old grasped the star-catching rules in about two minutes, and the 20-30 minute playtime is spot on for keeping her attention without dragging. It's rare to find a two-player game that works this well for a quick after-school round.
