Fantasy Flight Games is going to release another title in what they’re calling their “Unique Game” line and it looks like it will be pretty interesting. Discover: Lands Unknown will include a variety of components which will make each copy one-of-a-kind. In the game, players will try to survive two separate biomes as they also look to learn how they got stranded there in the first place. Discover: Lands Unknown is for one to four players, ages 12+, and plays in around one to two hours. The game is slated for a Q4 release and will carry an MSRP of $59.95.
From FFG:
You’ve awoken to find yourself far from home. The vast wilderness stretches before you, the days are long and every night is a struggle to survive. While you’re not sure how you ended up here, you know that answers won’t come from sitting around the meager campsite you’ve constructed. You’ll need to explore to find food, water, and most importantly, a way home!
Discover: Lands Unknown is a Unique Game, meaning every copy in the world is different. Through a sorting algorithm, the combination of components found in your game will be unlike any other copy in existence. While your group of survivors may find themselves stranded in a dense forest or on a freezing mountaintop, your friend’s copy may see a different group of survivors trying to escape a deserted island or harsh desert. However, each game is still monitored by the same set of rules that will guide you in your journey into the unknown.
When two to four players find themselves marooned in the harsh wilderness, you must cooperate and compete to search for water, food, and tools that will be essential to your very survival. But your adventure holds many secrets. Every copy of Discover: Lands Unknown is unlike any other in the world. A mix of environments, storylines, characters, locations, items, and enemies have been engineered to tell a story unique to every copy of the game thanks to an algorithm that ensures no two copies are alike. Your copy will contain various tiles, cards, and tokens, each pulled from a shared pool of components, and the combination will be different from every other copy in the world.
Tiles, scenarios, and threat cards are all a part of what makes your copy of Discover unique. But although every copy is different, your scenarios will tell a coherent, thrilling story, the threats you face will be dynamic and connected, and the two biomes included in your game will offer fresh new ways to play. Discover: Lands Unknown is a game unlike any other; how will you make your escape?
