Description

In 12 Parsecs, you're in a frantic rush to escape a supernova, and the clock is ticking. This fast-paced game is all about simultaneous action, where 2 to 10 players roll dice to build their ships, train cadets, and gather fuel. With a playtime of just 8 to 15 minutes, it's a quick thrill that's easy to learn, making it perfect for a spontaneous game night. The rules are straightforward, so you can dive right in and start competing with your friends. As you roll the dice, you'll need to think strategically about how to use them to your advantage. You'll form numbers to build your ships, but you'll also need to gather supplies to keep them running. The twist is that smaller ships are quicker to build, but they need more supplies, while larger ships are worth more points, but take longer to get off the ground. With its unique blend of dice rolling, simultaneous action, and push-your-luck mechanics, 12 Parsecs is a thrilling game that's all about making the most of your rolls. Designed by Andy Desa and Saurabh Misra, this 2020 game is a winner of the Design Machine contest, and it's sure to bring a blast of excitement to your game nights.
