Honest Quark Games
Earth Gambit: Light
German
Earth Gambit: Light is a team-based game, where players take on roles as:
- Aliens who want to conquer the Earth
- Scientists who fight for existence
- Extinctionists who want to rid the Earth of any intelligent life
The playing deck is a mix of different coloured science cards and action cards. A team wins when a certain amount of their team’s science cards have been played.
To achieve their goals, players can also use psych weapon or psych defence cards and stall their opponents with various action cards.
The catch is in the limited choice players have on their turn: from the 3 cards in their hand, they must play one card and pass one card to the next player. However, they don’t necessarily know who they are giving the card to.
The identities of all players are hidden, but it is not strictly a social deduction game. Although player identities may become clear after a few rounds, it doesn’t make winning much easier (or the game less enjoyable) – hence, it is called a social adventure game.
