Two new titles from Mayfair Games hit stores this week: Rocket Jockey and White Water. For two to four players, Rocket Jockey invites players to be the boldest and fastest cargo pilots in the universe. In White Water, three to four players shoot the rapids as their rafts race through treacherous obstacles to reach the finish line.
From Mayfair:
It’s 150 years in the future and mankind has spread throughout the solar system. To supply far-flung colonies, they look to the Rocket Jockeys!
The planets depend on timely cargo arrivals. This is not enough for the rocket jockeys. They compete with one another to see who can complete the fanciest maneuvers, transport the most important cargo and visit the most planets.
You must be daring and you must be quick. You must also be tough, for first contact with alien life is near at hand! Deliver your cargo with the most flair and speed and you will win the game!
Race down a deadly river, carefully navigate your rafts through the obstacles, trying to keep your paddles and your crew inside the raft.
In the game White Water each player directs the actions of four courageous rafters. Each raft in the race contains four crew, with two crew from you and two from another player. Players control the crew within a raft, but also may use Energy cards to additionally help one raft or the other.
Dice represent the effects of hazards you encounter, and even your best-laid plans can be spoiled by another raft pushing you a direction you don’t want to go. Score.
Designed by Frederic Moyersoen, designer of Mayfair’s popular Nuns on the Run, White Water is the game where players ride the rapids and earn points for getting their rafts and passengers home safely, navigating through treacherous waters including rocks, driftwood and the dreaded whirlpool!
