The extracted resources will be invested in various companies, and these companies will have bases scattered throughout the moon.
Alexander Pfister's 2022 major remake
Fifty years ago, humanity began mining veins on the moon and asteroids. For decades, this industry was firmly controlled by world governments. However, recent instability led to the collapse of the mining company. Now, pioneering enterprises and private investors have entered the area, attempting to revive the mining system.
In the game, you'll act as an investor, trying to earn the most C-coins across seven rounds. To achieve this, you need to invest your mined resources in various companies and expand their bases across the moon (or asteroids in the asteroid belt), thereby increasing their value. You can also boost your profits by funding scientists to collect rare Helium-3.
From African colonial investment to space scientific research and development, renowned board game designer Alexander Pfister has completely upgraded and remade his long-lost game Mombasa, with upgraded art, optimized gameplay, and new modules, transforming it into "Skymines" in space.
AP Teacher's games are known for their hand management, and are popular for their ranking compensation, high player interaction, and high re-opening rate, as seen in games like "Oh My Goodness!", "Lake of Grace", and "Maracaibo" (Wait a minute...).
And this time, Skyrim lived up to expectations. It wasn't just a change in art style, but rather retained the original flavor while bringing back the campaign module, single-player story, and AI module to everyone's attention.
The story of *SkyMine* is set 50 years after the development of the moon. Due to political instability, many competitors have emerged, and players must use their resources to invest in several powerful companies. The game offers several management paths: invest in company stock and help them expand? Invest in Helium-3 resources to achieve high scores? Invest in scientific research and development? Or simply focus on earning points regardless of the cost?
Make good use of your cards and play or retrieve them at the right time. Manage the use and strength of your cards. In particular, the card slots you unlock in the mid-game will make you more efficient at playing cards and provide more scoring options. The high-value areas on the moon will also cause companies to collide with each other during their expansion. As the behind-the-scenes operator, you will have to rack your brains to carve out a smooth road for yourself.
In addition to the redesigned theme and art, it also includes the previously rare "Ledger Expansion" and "Company Tracks E1 & E2", enhancing its collectability and gameplay.
The game map has also been changed to two sides, and it's not just a matter of changing the art on the front and back. One side is the moon, and the other side is the asteroid belt. Furthermore, a space shuttle cross-region movement mechanism has been added, further enhancing the gameplay.
In addition to catering to veteran players, the game's design also allows newcomers to get started quickly. The rulebook will suggest which tiles to use for first-time players, balancing the advantages of starting positions and lowering the learning curve.
The game also thoughtfully provides 6 compartmentalized storage boxes. The storage boxes fit perfectly into the inner box, and the height difference makes it easy to take out the contents without getting them stuck. Game accessories will no longer wobble or get mixed up, and you don't have to worry about them being damaged when you take them out because they are too tight.
Friends who like Mombasa can get a set; it has more content to do and the art is more beautiful.
Those who enjoy trying out player-versus-player games can also take a look. The game can be played solo against AI, or you can add AI to the game when playing with friends to add variables. Let your AP teacher accompany you to enjoy the wonderful experience of the game.
