A sci-fi board game where the mission is to restore peace rather than win a war ! The game is inspired from Marshall Rosenberg's Nonviolent Communication. It is not a negotiation game. It is not a diplomacy game. It does not offer a magic formula for restoring peace. It is a fun game designed to raise awareness - and that opens the door to Peace. A very very very cooperative board game! Earth is on the brink of collapse. A global war is raging. Humanity is falling apart. You are part of an extraordinary team: the finest human mediators, supported by three extraterrestrials from a highly advanced civilization. Together, you return to Earth - not to fight... but to restore peace. Your mission? Evacuate civilians. Stop the attacks. And above all: succeed in mediating between the warring factions... by uncovering the human needs hidden beneath the violence. ⏳ Time is running out. The survival of the planet is in your hands. ? Will you manage to build lasting peace - before it's too late? GAMEPLAY OVERVIEW Welcome to the mission. As mediators, you're not just observers - you're history shapers. Every decision you make can rewrite the fate of humanity. REMOVING ATTACKS With each turn, new attack tiles strike different regions of Earth. Your task? Undo the devastation left by war. Thanks to your extraordinary power - the ability to travel slightly back in time - you can reverse these events before they become irreversible. In the game, this is known as "removing an attack." It's not just damage control... it's rewriting the present. EVACUATION OF HUMANITY Every life counts. When an attack hits a zone inhabited by civilians, they either flee... or perish. Your team's mission is to save as many as possible - by teleporting them to safe zones: the "U base" the mothership in orbit. Move fast. Time is running out, and lives are on the line. MEDIATION - THE HEART OF THE MISSION Peace won't come through power. Only through understanding. To fulfill your mission, you must initiate mediation sessions with both warring governments - hidden deep within their submarines. There, you'll need to decode their true motivations and guide them to express not just demands... but the human needs behind them. Only then can real peace begin ! ? WINNING & LOSING THE GAME The fate of Earth hangs in the balance. The game ends when one of three conditions is met: ✅ Victory - Humanity Unites in Peace You've successfully mediated with both factions. Congratulations - you've achieved what history never could! ❌ Defeat - Earth Overrun by War A full horizontal line of attack tiles appears on the board. That region is lost. Humanity follows. ❌ Defeat - Too Many Lives Lost, Too Little Time The turn tracker and lost humanity cube meet. Too many are gone, and time has run out for mediation. -description from designer
