Rocket Ranchers was the first game from Binxadinx and the first game designed by David Bock. It is intended to be the first game of many taking place in the Rocket Ranchers universe. In Rocket Ranchers, players have been tasked with collecting various alien creatures on a far distant planet after a clowder of Space Cats were accidentally woken from hibernation. In the game of Rocket Ranchers, you’ll use your dogship (a deck of polynomial tractor beam cards) to collect animals from the pasture (a 4×4 grid). But be careful, when beaming up animals you might be forced to take a space cat — losing you points if you collect too many.
