Airport Rush

Airport Rush is an exciting game for 2 to 4 players that puts you in the shoes of an airport manager determined to maximize take-off efficiency. During your turn, you can buy dice that represent the load needed to meet the planes' requirements. Every decision counts, as you can only take off one plane at a time, requiring careful planning to optimize your objectives. Players can play airplane cards and action cards. Airplane cards increase your chances of scoring points by allowing you to take off more planes. On the other hand, action cards offer strategic actions that can speed up the operation of your airport. Unexpected events, such as bad weather and delays, can arise at any time, affecting all players and bringing new challenges. The game ends when one of the players completes the take-off of 7 planes, followed by a final round for everyone to add up their points, also taking into account the objective cards. The player with the highest score is declared the winner. In Airport Rush, you'll need to stand out in the rush, using dice to meet the demands of the planes and playing action cards at the right time. Get ready for the intense competition and find out if you have what it takes to manage an airport under pressure!

In Airport Rush, coordinate the take-off and landing of planes to avoid collisions. Your goal is to ensure that all planes arrive and depart safely.

Look carefully at the runways and the rows of planes. Click on an airplane to access its control options. When taking off or landing, follow orders to avoid congestion.

Time is crucial, so make quick but accurate decisions to keep the flow constant. Delays can cause chaos at the airport, complicating your control.

Manage priorities: planes already in the process of landing have more urgency than those in line to take off. Plan your actions according to this dynamic.

Stay calm under pressure and don't forget to pay attention to the aircraft's fuel, as low-fuel aircraft require immediate priority.
