![New Game Round-up: Escape a Dying Solar System, Create Weapons for the Third Reich, and Discover Animals in Taiwan](https://cf.geekdo-images.com/PFLROFphUG8dLU5CWxph8g__medium/img/K0exLpy7e-i_8mwekN_KefAPloQ=/fit-in/500x500/filters:no_upscale():strip_icc()/pic2776796.jpg)
The Exodus Fleet features resource management and tableau building mechanisms along with a highly interactive system of role selection and bidding in which players compete to hire miners, spaceship builders, and other groups to piece together their own fleet to escape a dying Earth. Just building ships and filling them with refugees will score you points, but making sure your ships work together may give you the advantage you need.
Players must decide whether to prioritize building ships within one faction (to score bonus points) or whether it might be better to build ships with synergy for powering their actions. Is it better to spend your resources on more ships or rescuing more survivors off of Earth? Should you gamble on explorers or just take a turn to gather more resources? And exactly how much money does my opponent still have? Can they outbid me for the action I really need to perform? A variety of strategic and tactical dilemmas await...
• Secret Weapons of the Third Reich from Luca Cammisa simulates "the arms race of World War II from the German perspective", with players trying to get projects approved and completed. An excerpt from the game description:
Also, players must operate in a "state of warfare". This means that as time goes on they are more and more subject to enemy Bombardments that can cause a great loss of resources and technologies. In addition, as starting in 1943 Allied and Soviet advances on Berlin make the map progressively smaller, players must face logistical issues never encountered during the early years of the war.
