This is a preorder. Preorder items are not yet available. The quantity available and “in stock” notations are the quantities we have available for advance order.
Our preorder system has some unique characteristics. Each order may contain only a single preorder product, and no other products, preorder or otherwise. If a customer adds a preorder product to a non-empty cart, the cart will be automatically emptied and the preorder product added. Items can be ordered individually. This ensures the preorder will be shipped when it becomes available and does not hold up any other items you may have ordered. Due to the way this systems works, if you preorder several things and they all ship on the same day we will reimburse you the difference in shipping costs as we process your order.
All preorders require full payment at the time the preorder is placed. Image, contents, and release date are subject to change. If you cancel your preorder before we ship your item we reserve the right to refund your payment minus the credit card or PayPal fee associated with your order.
Planet Unknown. Our planet has run out of resources, and we are forced to move. We have discovered a series of planets and sent our rovers to test their environment with the hope of colonization. Our rovers have confirmed 1-6 viable colonization options. Planet Unknown is a competitive game for 1-6 players where players build and develop the best planet to win!
Each player has a goal of developing the best planet in Planet Unknown. Each round, each player will place one dual resourced tile on their planet, which is a polyomino shape. Each resource represents the infrastructure needed to support life on the planet. Every tile placement is important to cover your planet efficiently and also to build up your planet’s engine. After placing the tile, players do two actions associated with the two infrastructure types on the tile. Be careful because some tile placements will trigger “meteors” that make all planets harder to develop and prevent it from scoring points in its row AND column.
Planet Unknown innovates on the popular polyomino trend by allowing simultaneous yet strategic turn-based play via the Lazy S.U.S.A.N. space station in the center of the table. The game also condenses a 3-hour medium weight game into about 70 minutes for 1-6 players no matter the player count.
