## Description

Product Description



   DESCRIPTION: Darkrock Ventures is a worker placement game about mining and exporting in a hostile outer space. Players will be controlling a mining company working in harsh conditions to acquire the most credits.  GENERAL INFO: A euro game for 1-5 players that plays in about 30-45 minutes.  THEME: Science Fiction. Space is a hostile environment with a known alien presence. Resources are scarce and it is commonplace for companies to mine asteroids to acquire them. It is known that aliens raid these asteroids and therefore mining companies are geared accordingly in preparation of being attacked. Lives are lost in this line of work daily, but if you run a good crew you can make it out alive and rich!  HOOK: Richly thematic euro incorporating dice and dice manipulation, with worker placement, resource farming and exporting.  WINNING CONDITION: Highest Credits when the end of the game is triggered. Credits are acquired primarily from exporting minerals mined from the asteroid.  MECHANICS: A round begins with rolling a set of communal dice that players will use in order to successfully mine the asteroid. Players then take turns placing workers throughout different space stations and on a mineral rich asteroid.  After all the workers have been placed a third and more volatile Neutronium die is rolled and added to the community dice. A player starts their turn by rolling his/her Rig Dice, these represent the a power element of his/her mining equipment that is to be paired with the community Power Dice in order to successfully mine resources from the asteroid. Then he/she resolves all his/her workers. As soon as players begin exporting minerals, hostile alien ships begin patrolling and will attack every round making it more difficult to resolve all the workers successfully.  Throughout the game, players will be increasing their worker count, gaining and spending credits (which are the victory points), gaining additional Rig Dice and acquiring explosive Neutronium bombs to protect them from the alien attacks.  When 3 of the 6 resource nodes on the asteroid are void of minerals the end of the game is triggered. The round is finished and the player with the most credits wins the game.  Darkrock Ventures also includes special 2-player game rules, as well as a Solo/Co-Operative variant, it&apos;s three games in one!

Our mission is to independently design, develop, and publish modern tabletop board games that are fun, entertaining, and intellectually stimulating. We built Magic Meeple Games on three core principles: Respect, Honor, and Fun.       About the Startup        Describe your product in 3 words. Understandable, Sophisticated, Replayable   How did you come up with the idea for this product? Darkrock Ventures was designed by: Michael Eskue, the designer of Council of Verona and For The Win. Developed by: Andrew Christopher Enriquez, Michael Coe, & Ian Stedman Illustrations by: Naomi Robinson Graphic Design by: Darrell Louder, Ian Stedman   What makes your product special? Darkrock Ventures would not exist without the 961 backers who supported this project on Kickstarter. Thanks to their tenacity and support, we were able to make several enhancements to Darkrock Ventures to enhance its durability, aesthetic quality, and replayability up to and beyond that of other luxury hobby-store board games while still remaining easily accessible to those uninitiated into the tabletop hobby.   What has been the best part of your startup experience? While Darkrock Ventures was the first game Magic Meeple Games as published, it is not the first game we have designed or developed, by far, nor was it the first Kickstarter campaign we were involved in, as Ian Stedman was previous published with his game Magnum Opus. It was very moving to hear the reactions from the backers who received their very own copy of what we created and to know that we did it on our terms, with the help and input of a very dedicated community of fans. We all created this project together, and we hope you will enjoy what we&apos;re working on next! Thank you for your support!
