Humanity, through its irresponsible behavior, has exhausted the natural resources of Earth, making it almost uninhabitable. In a burst of lucidity, pressed by the irreversible degradation of your planet, the great nations are forced to put aside their differences and share their knowledge in order to create the most vast spacecraft ever constructed. Thus, the BLACK ANGEL project is launched.

The Black Angel, the first intergalactic frigate in history, must transport the genetic heritage of humanity beyond known worlds, over a journey that is likely to last several thousand years. Her crew will be composed of only robots. Because no nation is willing to trust creation of the AI (artificial intelligence) that will control this crew to any other nation, a compromise is found: The Black Angel will be co-managed by several AIs, and the utility of each decision will be evaluated in VP (Validation Process).

At the completion of this long and perilous voyage, when a new inhabitable planet has been reached, the AI that has earned the most VP will be entrusted with reawakening Humanity, and overseeing its new start….

All the reports are in agreement: The Black Angel is approaching Spes, a planet with the highest probability for habitability by the human species. Take advantage of our approach to maintain the good relations you have gradually woven with the benevolent Alien species populating the galaxy, and watch out for the dreaded Ravagers, who would do anything to prevent you from reaching Spes.

Troyes successor.

I still prefer troyes over this but it's still a good game for what it is. It's also a bit fiddly and hard to see.

Beautiful and complex

I played my first game solo and had a blast figuring out how to optimize my space travel, the use of my robots, and my choice of technology tiles. It's when I played my first multiplayer game that I noticed how fast the complexity of each decision emerges. My plans would change quickly depending on the other players' choices and I noticed I had to remain flexible if I was to stay ahead of the curve. It's an amazing game with nuanced choices, and one of the most beautiful ones I own on top of that. 100% recommend.

Grandiose and intricate

This is an amazing game. Everything is interconnected and it is as good multiplayer as it is solo. I simply adore this game and played over and over again since I received it. I highly recommend to anyone who likes deep euros. Every decision you make have consequences and it can also influence what the other players will do. It's simply my favourite euro of the year!
