The passengers can see the captain's die roll before deciding whether to alight, so you know roughly how much risk you are taking. You constantly face the dilemma of whether to score points now, or wait and hope to be able to score more, at the risk of scoring nothing. The basic cards in the game, which are used to steer the airship to the next destination.Ĭelestia is a risk-taking game. Another one allows you to alight safely when you otherwise can't. one allows you to force an opponent to alight. The game comes with some special ability cards. If steering the airship successfully requires playing jokers, then the captain has the choice of whether to steer the airship to the next city. The only exception is when he has jokers in hand. He may not run the airship aground to deny other players points, albeit at the cost of not scoring any points himself. The captain must always steer the airship to the next city if he has the right cards. However generally the higher cities have higher valued cards. There is a deck of scoring cards for each cloud city, and the scores vary even within the same deck. This goes on until one player accumulates more than 50 points from the scoring cards he draws. After a trip ends, whether due to a failed flight or due to all players having decided to alight, a new trip starts back at the first city. If the captain fails to play such cards, the airship is forced to land, and everyone still on board scores no points. Each time the airship attempts to travel to the next higher city, dice are rolled to see what cards the current captain needs to play in order to arrive safely. At each city, each player may individually decide to alight to score points, or to stay on board, hoping to travel to the next city to score even more points. The airship travels from one cloud city to the next. Players ride an airship, taking turns to be the captain.
Celestia is a remake of Cloud 9 using a similar theme.
