Cosmic Run: Rapid Fire – Rapid Mission is an expansion for Cosmic Run: Rapid Fire released in 2019 for 2 players, 20–30 minutes per game, and ages 14 and up. It was designed by Steve Finn and its main mechanics are Take That, Dice Rolling, and Paper-and-Pencil.
The Mission Pack is a 10-card expansion pack to Cosmic Run: Rapid Fire. Each card is double-sided, with an in-game "mission" on one side and a "bonus" on the other side. At the start of the game, 5 mission cards are randomly selected and placed "mission" side up. The other five cards are randomly paired with the previously placed cards, but with "bonus" side up. If a player is the first to accomplish a mission, she takes the bonus card assigned to it, which gives not only an immediate power, but also a recurring power whenever the player takes a die specified by the bonus card. -description from designer
