Finding John Carter is a science fiction fantasy board game where you select your crew (cubes) and place them in a draw bag. Each turn you draw 5 crew members out of the bag and send them to perform important tasks.  Those tasks help you improve your ship, improve your crew, gain resources (crystals) and specialists (meeples), get a smuggler - so you can trade in the black market, and accomplish missions.  Those missions eventually will lead you to find the lost John Carter. This triggers the end of the game and you add victory points.  The player with the most points wins!
