Delta V (2001)

About this game

Designed by Christian T. Petersen and Darrell Hardy, Delta V is a clever, colorful, and affordable game of memory, strategy, and just a pinch of backstabbing. Rival mining companies explore asteroids to reap their mineral riches. Remember which asteroids hold which minerals, bid for the proper contract, and struggle against nasty competition. All in a day's work at the Delta V asteroid field. Part of the Silver Line collection

Does it fit your group?

• Group size. Works with 2 to 4.
• Rules load. At 1.6/5 this is a light game — explain it in a few minutes, good for a table that has not played much.
• Age. The publisher suggests 12 and up. That rates the rules rather than the artwork, so judge the box yourself for younger players.
