Race to the Galaxy

In this cool teamwork game, teams start from one place or their own spots. The story is that their planet is running out of stuff, and they need to collect the last bits (bean bags) to power their spaceship to reach a new planet before others do. But their home planet is mostly dangerous lava, so they have to use pretend hovercrafts (hoops) to move around and collect the fuel.

Teams need to stand in two hoops (maybe three for 4-6 players) and always put a third hoop in front of them, like laying train tracks. Once a hoop is down, they can't move it around, except for picking it up, but only if nobody is inside. This means they have to plan carefully.

If someone steps outside the starting point or hoops, they get a penalty. The penalty is either throwing a collected fuel bag into the game area or going back to start if they don't have any fuel bags. After grabbing a bag, players can keep it or go back to the starting point and put it on one of five spots (fuel tanks). The team that fills all five tanks first wins the race to the new planet. It's a fun and tricky game that needs everyone to work together!
