Post-Quantum Trails

Post-Quantum Trails

2026

2 - 4 players
30 - 90 min
Medium weight: Teach it in one sitting

From BoardGameGeek

You are the head of a company that is developing post-quantum cryptographic algorithms. Now it is your time to shine, as the whole world is in need of algorithms secure against quantum computers. Your task is to expand your team and ensure that the algorithms you develop achieve worldwide adoption. Hash-based, isogeny-based or lattice-based: which one will you invest in? The game is a race between you and the development of quantum computing. If a quantum computer is built before any of the players move to the final migration step, the game ends and all players lose. Otherwise, the game ends when one of the players reaches "Worldwide Usage" (the final step on the migration board). Throughout the game, you will be gaining resources to hire new team members, publish your research, and advance on the migration board. Team members and publication cards will earn you victory points. The player with the most victory points wins the game.
