This is a fun new game that I just discovered a few weeks ago.  In it, you play a major spacefaring nation trying to develop its space program.  You can cooperate with other countries, or you can compete with them, or you can do both - you get more glory by being the first to accomplish space goals!

It's got a very asynchronous turn sequence that's very different from most games.  It also needs a little math.  :)  (But not very difficult math.)  Have a look at some reviews of the game and see what you think.

Please add Lori to the players.  Room for one more.  (Limited to 3 players because it's still pretty new to me.)

I'd like to feature my new card game Monkey! (https://monkeythecardgame.wordpress.com/)

GAME TITLE: Monkey
TEACHER: Rob Gosselin
START TIME: 6:30pm
DURATION: 60 Minutes
# OF PLAYERS: 4
URL: Board Game Geek URL (https://boardgamegeek.com/boardgame/198615/monkey), Monkey Facebook Page URL (https://www.facebook.com/Monkeythecardgame/)

Monkey is a goofy, fast-paced, family card game for 1-4 players where the odds are stacked against you and your fellow monkeys as you race to be the first monkey up The Tree. There's more description on the Board Game Geek page but that's the basic idea!
