In the far reaches of the galaxy, a mysterious spaceship named Andromeda has been discovered, holding secrets of a long-lost ancient race. This abandoned wreck is a treasure trove of advanced technologies, and various ambitious races are eager to claim its secrets for themselves. In the board game Andromeda, 2 to 4 players take on the roles of scientists from different races, working together to explore the ship while pursuing their own agendas. With a playtime of 60 minutes, this game is perfect for a fun and engaging evening with friends. The game's unique action selection system, based on the "I split, you choose" idea, adds a thrilling layer of strategy and unpredictability.

Designed by Jan Zalewski and published in 2015, Andromeda is a game of area majority, influence, and exploration, where players must navigate the modular board and use their wits to outmaneuver their opponents.
