About the game
The future of humanity depends on you! In a desperate attempt to perpetuate humanity, when climate change on Earth was irreversible, several manned spaceships were sent out of the Solar System, hoping to find worlds where they could establish a colony and start a new civilization. Each spacecraft was sent with more than 30 cryopreserved colonists on a journey of hundreds of years to different nearby stars, confirmed to have at least one planet that could support life. You are part of this group of brave volunteers who left everything behind in the distant past. Your ship successfully landed and deployed the initial base, but now you are on your own, in a race against time to deploy the basic life support systems needed for long-term survival. You were well trained for this, but this is no longer a simulation. You are on a vital mission and cannot afford to make any mistakes. Is your fledgling colony doomed to fall apart, or will you turn over a new chapter in human history? Exoworld Survival is a cooperative colony-building game, set in the alien landscape of a new planet. Each turn, you use your character actions to expand your colony with new modules, manage unique crises, and achieve self-sufficiency on a variety of unique exoplanets. The cooperative game has endless replayablity with a wide variety of exoplanet scenarios, characters, and modules. —description from the publisher

Exoworld Survival has a complexity rating of 2.5 out of 5 from BoardGameGeek players, which makes it a medium-light game.
