Astra is a competitive and highly interactive game centered around discovering constellations. Players gather and use Stardust to mark stars on Constellation cards, either to aid others in their discoveries or to complete a constellation and claim the card for themselves.

Completing a Constellation card not only boosts the value of your collection but also grants additional abilities for more effective play. Assisting other players provides instant rewards, making timing and investment decisions crucial.

With 48 unique Constellation cards, each game offers a fresh experience and dynamic scenarios based on the cards in play. Astra is a medium-light game that's easy to learn and reveals its strategic depth after just a few turns. Its simplicity and compatibility with 2 players make it an excellent choice for couples.
