Enormity is a board game released in 2026 for 1–4 players, 60–90 minutes per game, and ages 14 and up. It was designed by Marcin Wełnicki and its main mechanics are Variable Player Powers, Hand Management, and Track Movement.
Enormity is an extraction dungeon crawler that offers epic boss battles and can be enjoyed in one-shot sessions or as interconnected modular campaigns, boasting virtually infinite replayability. Set in an immersive, reactive, and seamless science fiction open world, players explore the vast NASF ship, The Shepherd, scavenging for loot and knowledge while avoiding or confronting terrifying intruder enemies, including powerful boss-type alien lifeforms. The game is steeped in rich lore, with players uncovering The Shepherd's enigmatic past through engaging narratives contained within the Mythos Book. To enhance exploration, Location Books provide players with maps that unfold as they traverse the ship. Players can choose established characters or create their own, developing them through branching progression trees. They gather engrams to convert into resources, weaponize their findings, and develop technology while uncovering alien lore. Crafting new weapons, gear, and suits, and customizing loadouts becomes essential for survival in this adventure. Play as a one-shot session in a race to complete your run and get back to the safe house before intruder Bosses hunt you down or a campaign with a fixed time frame. —description from the publisher
Enormity supports 1–4 players according to the catalogue. This range comes from the publisher’s listed player count, so the game can be set up for any group size within it. Some setups, rules and scoring details may still vary by player count, so check your edition’s rulebook for the exact configuration.
The listed playing time for Enormity is 60–90 minutes. This is the publisher’s estimate for a full game. The actual duration depends on the group, the player count and familiarity with the rules: first sessions usually run longer, while experienced groups often finish faster. Setup and teaching time are not included in this estimate.
The catalogue lists Enormity for ages 14 and up. This is the publisher’s recommendation and reflects reading demands, rule complexity and small components rather than theme alone. Younger players can often join with help from an adult, so check the age guidance on your edition and consider your group’s experience with board games.
Enormity has a complexity rating of 4.0 out of 5 from BoardGameGeek players, which makes it a heavy game. The rating reflects how much rules knowledge, planning and decision-making a typical game demands. Expect a longer first teach for heavier games, and use a preparation guide before game night.
