Vintage 1986 SolarQuest The Space Age Real Estate Board Game-
Complete EUC, except for some corner and rules wear

Rated 4.8 out of 5 stars by 32 Amazon buyers and reviewers
where it sells for between $54 used to $144 new

Preowned. 100% Complete.
All of the cards and pieces have been neatly bagged and banded.
EUC except slight corner wear and wrinkled and underlined rules.

Condition of rules or instructions:
If any consolation, only the important rules have been underlined. 
Specifically, on the 8 pages of instructions, 4 rules have been 
underlined in red while 1 rule has been underlined in pencil.
There are no tears in the instructions and you will have no trouble
reading any of the instructions, but there are a lot of wrinkles.

Condition of box:
Each of the 4 box corners show some wear. 
Yet, I would consider it minor and normal for a 40-year-old game.
Please see the pictures of each of the 4 corners of the game.
Otherwise, box is sturdy, sound and in excellent used condition.
Please see pictures for condition of the box and the instructions.

Description:
Players command a spaceship around the solar system
in an attempt to land on and purchase moons and planets.
Players must also be aware of their fuel,
as certain maneuvers cost fuel, while others are free.
Rent is charged when opponents land on your property,
and players are eliminated by bankruptcy or being stranded.

Tom Vasel of Boardgamegeek final thoughts review:
"...an entertaining game. My kids liked it and said it feels kind of
lucky, but it is fun. Unlike Monopoly, I like this one as it is slightly
educational and has the cooler aspects because it is space.
It brought back many good memories. I enjoyed playing with 
my kids. I think they will enjoy playing it with their friends.  
Dice Tower Judgement: Nostalgically Fun!"

"Love it. I love this game and all of the pieces are still with it."

"
Childhood in a box. 
Best game ever. I think my brother and I
dug it out of our basement when we were little after it had been
down there who knows how long. We had the one game no one
else did. No one else had heard of for that matter, and it was an
AWESOME game. You lose fuel as you move around the solar
system, buying property, like monopoly. To escape a planets orbit,
you have to roll high enough to reach escape velocity...
Lots of little pieces to lose, cards, rocket ships, fuel units...
but mostly all able to be recreated with sculpy or cardboard.
Between Risk and this game we learned all the planets,
moons, and earth's countries."

"A blast from the past! This one is perfect and complete."

"Such an amazing surprise for my boyfriendHe grew
up playing this and his face lit up when he opened it!"

"Monopoly, but much better. Solarquest is basically Monopoly,
but all properties work like the Railroads, where rent goes up with
each of the local properties you buy, rather than having to secure
a Monopoly to do it. Replacing Houses and Hotels are
Fuel Stations, which you also don't need a monopoly to
purchase, in fact, you HAVE to in order to secure your properties. 

To make a long story short, it's far more balanced
with A LOT more options, and well worth playing."

"Super fun, educational game. Anytime I have a crossword
puzzle asking about some moon I refer to my childhood
and remember most of them. As a kid playing this, I knew
the solar system better than most of the Earth's countries.
Fast forward to my adulthood... went looking for this at my
parents house only to discover my mom had sold it at a
garage sale years earlier. So I bought it again after telling
my friends' kids all about it...I think if you play disregarding fuel
completely it'll be more fun for youngsters. Otherwise they loved
the game and want to play it with me everytime they visit."

"Many fun times playing with my sonPurchased this game
originally decades ago. Many fun times playing it with my son
(he's now 33). Thrilled to find a replacement for ours lost
in a house fire, carry on the fun & tradition with future family."

"A spaceage monopoly. Take monopoly, add a spaceship,
fuel and a lot more properties to buy and you have solar quest. 
Great game for those who have the time to play Monopoly, and
have patience to run multiple aspects of a board game at once."
