Race for the Galaxy is a very popular economic style card game that has several expansions to it as well as many fans, so a new game in the same universe will have a leg up on other games. That new game is
Jump Drive, a re-implementation of the older game
The City, with a theme switch to put it firmly into the Race universe. The game will have a
San Juan type economy where anything you want to build will have to be paid for in cards. Some cards will enable you to be more efficient with building, others will get you points, while others will get you special abilities. Rio Grande Games has said that the cards and interactions will be similar to the larger Race card game so that you can use
Jump Drive as a launching point into the bigger game. So be on the lookout for this game when it hit's store shelves in January of 2017.
