Uncharted Stars is a print-and-play roll-and-write game that is playable for 1 to an infinite amount of players. The game is played over 18 rounds, with each round called a Star Calendar Day.

Throughout the game, players will hire crew, visit planets, defeat enemy ships, fly through asteroid fields, and upgrade their ship. The winner is the player who has most successfully explored the galaxy and hired the best crew. —description from the publisher
