Star Trek: Lower Decks Fluxx Game Arrives
A standalone Fluxx card game based on Star Trek: Lower Decks arrives in October 2026, featuring chaotic gameplay with characters from the animated series.
The animated series Star Trek: Lower Decks is being adapted into a standalone card game called Star Trek Lower Decks Fluxx, which will be released in October 2026. The game combines the rules of the classic Fluxx card game with characters and elements from the adult comedy series that aired from 2020 to 2024.
According to the product listing on the Looney Labs website, no other Fluxx sets are required to play this new game. This makes it a potential entry point for fans of the show who are new to the Fluxx game system.
What the Game Includes
The manufacturer describes the game as "the funniest frontier." It features the crew of the Starship Cerritos, including characters like Boimler, Mariner, Rutherford, and Tendi. The game will also include the bridge crew, Cetacean Ops, and the exocomp Peanut Hamper. Players will face antagonists known as Creepers, such as the Pakleds, Badgey, and the Moopsy.
The product description asks, "Is your helmet big enough to win you the game?" This hints at the chaotic and shifting rule set typical of Fluxx games.
