Game Type: Worker placement and engine-building game for 2-4 players, ages 14 & up. Playing time: 30 minutes per player.
The game has a basic & advanced version, the advanced version can be added to the basic game in layers as seen fit (page 24).
Setting: Near-future Earth, deep beneath the surface.
The Premise: In a bid to safeguard humanity from the harsh surface environment, specialized Corporations, controlled by
the players, are utilizing advanced technology in a bid to safeguard humanity.
Your task as a Sub-Corporate Leader is to establish and manage a thriving subterranean society. Dig underground, explore
suitable ground layers to find the ideal terrain to build up your society based on your strengths & unique abilities. Secure
the favour of The Corp by diligently completing assigned tasks and delivering necessary goods and resources. The Corp’s
valuable perspective is crucial for the society’s success; failure will result in irreparable damage to the player’s reputation.
Core Gameplay & Objectives:
• Sub-Corporate Specialization: Each sub-corporation possesses unique expertise in certain environments. Partial
collaboration is essential; you may need to hire the specialized skills of rival teams to successfully evolve your society.
• Resource Management: You must efficiently manage your resources to fund your workforce, keep them fed, and
maintain high morale to build the most successful society.
• Executing Orders: Each turn, The Corp issues a set of orders for you to select from, accompanied by small bonuses.
Success depends on your ability to strategically prioritize these tasks within your managing console.
• The Corp Relationship: Occasionally, you’ll need to “send gifts” to The Corp. Some call them bribes, but we prefer
to view it as a demonstration of your exemplary leadership, designed to gain extra resources or boost your reputation.
• Missions & Victory: The Corp lays out random mission objectives for players to complete, offering Corporations a
chance to gain more reputation. In the end, only one corporation will emerge victorious, earning the exclusive rights to
all future subterranean development. Will your leadership prevail?
