About the game

Lander Mode is a promo card, which allows you to finish a game of Astro ROVE and combine it with a game of ROVE. Lander will literally bridge the gap between the two games. Once you've completed a normal game of Astro ROVE, place this card over the last mission to initiate Lander Mode, then continue your game using the original ROVE rules and cards. —description from the publisher
