About the game
It's the year 2124. Energy has become a rare commodity as a consequence of the industrialization of our universe. One of the main energy sources is White Ranium. The large energy companies can hardly find new planets with the raw material, and heavy-duty surface scanners are employed to search for a worthwhile volume of the energy source in the few Ranium mines already known. Now the Mega Group Troll Factory Unlimited has found some on planet GH-328. Several rival mine crews have been sent to the mine to find the White Ranium and transport it to the space loader — but the material isn't secure until it arrives at the space loader. Until then it can be intercepted by the other mine crews. In TF22 Mine, each player takes the part of one mine crew, collects White Ranium in the mine, and transports it to the space loader. Each space loader can load up to two units of White Ranium. The mine crew must then return to the base camp in the middle of the mine to recharge their equipment. After that, they can send more units of White Ranium to the space loader. The crew then uses the molecular transporter of the space loader for transport to the base camp. The player who first transports three units of White Ranium to the space loader wins.

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 TF22 Mine is 35 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 TF22 Mine 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.
TF22 Mine has a complexity rating of 1.6 out of 5 from BoardGameGeek players, which makes it a light 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.
