Description

In Knorkator - The World Will Never Be The Same Again, the official party game based on the band, up to 8 players take on the nations of the world in a bitter battle for survival. The fact that neither the type, size, nor the exact time and place of the asteroid's impact is known plunges the players into uncertainty. First a wood made Asteroid getting assembled with random and hidden parameter plates which defines the type, size, impact location and timing of the asteroid. Then each player select a country. Then the game starts and runs over 3-5 turns and a following endgame phase. Every turn the player there are different phases: Receiving funds Invest in researching the various asteroid parameters Buy buildings of various type depending onto what kind of buildings are important to survive the asteroids impact and or get the most profit out of it. Like building colony ships to leave the planet, buy lasers or atomic rockets to destroy it, up building giant robots, megaplexes, underground shelters and many more. Espionage what the other players are building and share or lie about your research knowledge and plans for the endgame Use your countries special powers. Endgame: Then at the moment the asteroid impacts a endgame is triggered where the players use their lasers, atomic bombs, tugboat spaceship and more to prevent, or alter the asteroids impact zone and size, or try to influence or prevent the other players reactions like destroying their launched atomic rockets with lasers. —description from the designer
