About the game
The Genesis expansion for Crisis at Steamfall features a brand-new set of story cards for every original character, and introduces a few new characters as well. Set in the days of Steamfall’s rise and featuring streamlined new game modes, you will begin play with a single ability that defines your character’s unique strengths. As the game progresses, you will shape your character’s fate through a series of branching quests that gradually award new abilities as you progress through the story. Ultimately, the decisions you make will have consequences for the entire city through the implementation of a new and improved event system. This large expansion features over 150 cards that are compatible with both the cooperative and competitive base game modes. Included in these new cards is a large selection of items that focus on the item modification mechanic, a host of extraordinary new civilians, and many new secret locations with powerful, game-changing effects. Also included in the expansion is a set of rebalanced cards, updated rules for the base game, and extra tokens to help to spread the wealth around at high player counts. Additionally, Steamfall introduces new crises and modifications to the cooperative experience that will streamline the game to its full potential. The rich wonders of Steamfall await. Will you help guide it to prominence, or exploit its mysteries to serve your own interests? —description from the publisher
