NOTE: This is NOT a standalone game, one Treehouse set and a six sided die is also needed to play.
What are Martian Coasters? They're a set of 4 colorful 4" beverage coasters, each featuring a small gameboard. They'll work great right out of the package for the "Where Can I Put Down My Beverage?" game, but to play the game of Martian Coasters, you will also need a Treehouse set and a standard D6.
Each player gets 3 pyramids of one color, which are distributed around on the 3 gameboards other than the one featuring that player's color. The object is to move all of your pyramids onto the board of your color and into a nested stack on the center of that board.
The spaces on the boards have small triangles which indicate the directions in which pieces may be moved, since there are limits to where you may go; meanwhile, the distance each piece may travel is determined by its size, and limited by the luck of your die rolls. Best of all, the Treehouse die is also rolled during each turn, providing a variety of wacky actions which include rotating the coasters, swapping pairs of coasters, and even "hopping" a coaster to another edge, breaking the universe out of its initial square configuration. When you roll TIP, you get to "Totally Increase Points" by changing your other die roll to a 7. And of course, WILD works just as you'd expect, letting you choose one of the other 5 actions.
