ELDER SPACE Expansion

This expansion is not playable on its own and requires the ELDER SPACE base game, to which it adds 40 new cards.

All rules and game mechanics remain unchanged, so nothing new needs to be learned. Simply shuffle the new cards into the deck with the original cards before building the deck, and you're ready to go.

Game description from ELDER SPACE:

While the sheep-people of the human worlds enjoy AI-generated virtual realities, advanced ecstatic substances, and erotic-fantastic brain implants, it is said that hostile forces are gathering beyond the boundaries of the known universe. A scout must be sent out to investigate the threat! You have access to the most advanced teleportation technology, allowing you to travel through space-time rifts to the most remote corners of the cosmos—even to the parts that have existed since the beginning of time and are known as ELDER SPACE.

This is a solo space exploration game with minimalist rules, based on the innovative mechanics of DOOM PILGRIM. The mechanics have been adapted to this new dark future setting to provide the most impressive and immersive experience possible.

You play as an investigator who is sent through space-time rifts to the most remote corners of the universe: You are a Riftcrawler Inquisitor.

In addition to various gains and losses, you also accumulate failure points on your journey, which you weigh against success points to see whether your people bring you home or leave you far away from your galaxy as expendable, as a failed experiment. In this way, danger lurks everywhere, and you can trust no one.

The game is difficult in its default setting, but there are various options to make it easier, all of which are listed in the rules on the Hook Box.

This Hook Box contains everything you need to play (90 tarot cards), except for a pen and paper, which you need to track your progress.
