About this game

From the back of the box: The space trading adventure game set in the final years of the 21st Century. Chart your own course through the hazards and perils of the solar system. Trade vital commodities between Earth's far-flung space colonies. Venture beyond the Black Hole to seek the mysterious planetoid Zastra. Transport the priceless Solar Crystal to solve Earth's energy crisis. Description: Played on a stylized board of the Solar System using die rolls the object is to collect and deliver commodities between planets. Longer journeys can be undertaken using upgrades. (It is similar to Braburn's Elite computer game!) The object is to get an energy crystal from a difficult to reach part of the board and to return to Earth with it.
