Chimera Station

Chimera Station

2017·Mark Major

2 - 4 players
60 - 90 min
Heavy weight: Expect a long teach

From BoardGameGeek

Chimera Station brings a new twist to the worker placement genre: customizable workers. Each worker can be modified in-game by splicing claws, tentacles, leaves or additional brains (or any combination of those) on them. These workers are used to gather resources: points, food, credits, and living parts of aforementioned workers! During the game you'll build and expand the space station and open up tons of different strategic and tactical possibilities. Featuring a grand total of 12 standard action spaces and 40 additional ones (modules), 22 perks, 16 different ways to configure your aliens (via components), and 4 different races, the possibilities are endless! Artwork has been done by Brian Patterson from the webcomic "d20Monkey".
