Description

Welcome to the moon, where the low gravity and confined spaces make for a whole new level of strategic gameplay in Android: Netrunner - First Contact. This 2014 expansion, designed by Richard Garfield and Lukas Litzsinger, adds a fresh layer of complexity to the original game, with sixty new cards that introduce three new region upgrades, mythic ice, new traps, resources, and a new Anarch identity. As you navigate the lunar landscape, you'll need to adapt to a meat space where everything is enclosed and watched, and the Corps seem to control every move you make. As a two-player game, Android: Netrunner - First Contact pits you against your opponent in a battle of wits, with each side trying to outmaneuver the other in a cyberspace struggle for control. With a playtime of just 45 minutes, this game is perfect for a quick, intense showdown, and the normal complexity level means that anyone familiar with board games should be able to jump right in. The game mechanics, including action points, hand management, secret unit deployment, and variable player powers, all work together to create a thrilling experience that's full of surprises. Whether you're a seasoned pro or just looking to expand your Android: Netrunner experience, First Contact is a great way to mix things up and try out new strategies. As you play, you'll find yourself immersed in a strange and alien world, where everything you thought you knew is turned on its head. The remotest edges of Port Anson Grid and the seedy underbelly of Duggar's are just a few of the locations you'll encounter, each with its own unique challenges and opportunities. With its science fiction theme and collectible components, Android: Netrunner - First Contact is a must-have for fans of the series, and a great introduction to the world of Android: Netrunner for new players. So why not suit up and take the leap, and see what kind of cyberstruggles you can get yourself into on the moon?
