The Corporations

The Global Corporate Coalition (GCC) is formed from six of the world’s largest and most influential companies, representing industries such as finance, big pharma, transportation & energy, lifestyle, technology and defence.

The 2-4 player Core Box features Westcot & Benton, Cellulife, TransFusion and Aspire where all the corporations play the same. Matsumoto and YDR will feature in the 5 – 6 player expansion next year, where you’ll explore the unique asymmetric playstyle of each corporation.

Meet the Crew

For the mission to Kaimas to succeed a diverse crew of 60 specialists were hand picked based on their field of expertise in Engineering, Operations and Science.

Each member is as unique and diverse as the world they left behind; their abilities, traits and level of proficiency will all contribute to the outcome of your mission.

Here’s some of the resourceful and essential people you will rely upon…

Welcome to Kaimas-2

It was in 2035 that the Kaimas system was first discovered and in the years that followed, the international space community became obsessed with Kaimas-2 and shifted most of its focus to studying this new world

The public were sold the dream of returning to a safe, thriving community; a world free from conflict and disease, with abundant food and clean water. However, behind closed doors, the GCC schemed to carve up the resource potential of the new world and establish a monopoly to exploit it for their own ends.

Each company has sent several representatives to ensure their corporate interests are met, but things will not be so simple… you cannot negotiate with the planet itself!

Devastating Dust Storms...

Killer Weather Systems...

Deadly Bacteria...

But if you face your challenges you may just thrive...

And to thrive you must grow your resource base and develop your crew with specific combinations of traits and classes to earn Mission Stars and stand ahead of the competition…

This might sound like your typical Euro-style game where players focus on their own playing area with minimal interaction, but not the case with Lander instead players directly impact each other’s strategies through various game mechanics.

Negotiation provides a framework for trading resources and Activity cards between corporations. Leadership Abilities and Action cards can be used to pull back a rival or further your own interests, while Event cards force players to make difficult choices that can impact themselves or the entire colony.

Lander is like life. You will experience highs and lows and be faced with challenges that will force you to solve problems and pivot your strategy.
