Gravity Superstar is a game that I picked up on a whim, on special, and has proven itself to be a fun enough little game. The board is made up of tiles, depending on the number of players will depend on how many you place down. You then have these cute little 3D star tokens, in different colours, which you then place as indicated by the faint illustrations on the board tiles, and you then place each players token on one of the doors on the map, aligning it with the image of the door (and thus you all start facing a different direction). Each player then gets a set of five cards, four of them each create a different movement for your token, with the fifth acting as a wild card.
The aim is nice and easy, use your cards to maneuver your token so that gravity will take over and it will fall through some of the stars, which you then get to collect. There are also replay tokens which, when used, allow you to play a card that you've already used, that you can collect like you do that stars. There's the added strategy, that if you fall 'through' another player, you send them flying off the board and their next turn they must start at a door, as indicated by the door token. What I like, about this game, is that it is really easy to pick up, each card is easy to understand what its roll is and there is the opportunity for some strategy. Also, you play until there is a set number of stars left on the board, so depending on how you play your cards, it could be a very quick game.
