The Crew is a cooperative card game in which you try to cross the universe together in 50 different missions. You will only succeed if everyone pays attention and works together. One wrong card can mean the end of the mission. Furthermore, your communication options in space are very limited. Talking won't work, but by making smart use of the resources you have, you should be able to get the right astronaut to win the battle with just the right card. The Crew will feel familiar to a card player. The rules of the game are basically simple. But because you have to work together with these rules and the limited communication, an innovative, exciting and very fun card game emerges for both beginners and the seasoned card player. The Games Friends: " What a great game De Crew is. Normally we are less into battle games, but in a cooperative it is great fun to do. There are a lot of missions in it that you can keep playing, so as far as we are concerned this is a game that every game lover should have. Absolute tip!
