Description

The second game in the Escape the Dark series, Escape the Dark Sector is a simple, sci-fi adventure game with a focus on atmosphere, storytelling and player cooperation – perfect for newcomers to tabletop gaming. It takes less than 5 minutes to set up, lasts around 45 minutes, and each mission is randomly generated so no two games are ever the same.

Playing as the beleaguered crew of an impounded starship, players find themselves confined to the detention block of a vast space station. Using a variety of advanced gear and weaponry, they will embark on a desperate mission to find their ship and blast their way home.

Along the way, the crew will have to overcome a variety of dangers, traps, and terrors. From cyborg guards and faulty replicators to killer alien organisms, with each challenge is represented by a large, beautifully illustrated chapter card.

As these immersive chapter cards are revealed one by one, the game takes on the form of a shared storybook experience, with the players making decisions about what to do each chapter before using a combination of tactical dice combat and timely use of item cards to complete them.

The goal of the game is to complete every chapter in the mission deck, and then defeat the final boss and recover your starship. To win, you must keep each member of the crew alive - if any player is killed the game ends immediately.

Would recommend

There is a lot to get your head around to start this game, but once you play a round or two it all falls into place.

Good mix of all your favourite sci-fi films rolled into one great board game.

Good coop/ solo game!

Christmas present for my brother. We had previously played Escape the Dark Castle so was confident would be same quality. Easy to pick up and fun to play. My brother also mentioned solo play is good as well.
