Description Description
Endure the Stars is a 1-6 player cooperative action survival game set on the planet-colonising ship, the N.W.E. Hikari. Players pick up the story one year into the Hikari's colonisation efforts and everything has fallen to ruin. Scientists aboard the ship were attempting to genetically engineer life forms to explore the planet below, unbeknownst to the ships general populace. But a series of tragedies lead to the truth being discovered and the ensuing chaos released the creatures from containment, where they rampaged through the ship, killing anyone they came across. Now the remaining crew live in small groups, salvaging whatever they can to survive.

Game overview
• In Endure the Stars, players take control of one or more survivors and attempt to complete missions by exploring the ruins of the once thriving ship. Players control 6 unique character classes, each with their own special abilities that can turn the tide of any game.
• Complete various missions as a standalone game or an overarching campaign
• Search the ruins of the once thriving ship for powerful weapons, items, helmets and armour
• You’re not the only thing still alive on the ship. The escaped genetic experiments, known as the GEPs, are lurking everywhere and if spotted will not stop hunting you
• The GEPs are controlled by the game itself and start each mission represented by radar tokens. You’ll not know what lurks under the token until you make visual contact, so you must be ready for anything
• One GEP stands more powerful and dangerous than all others, the fearsome Titan. Its actions are controlled by its own deck of cards, making it unpredictable, gargantuan and deadly. It will take everything you’ve got to bring this leviathan down
• The game tiles that represent the ship have been designed in a modular style, which allows for near limitless map sizes and set-ups. Games can last anywhere between 30 minutes to 3 hours depending on the chosen scenario and difficulty, so there's never an excuse not to play!
• The ship is in a constant state of decay and is prone to black outs, power failures and much more that affects how the game is played and causes you to constantly adapt

Endure the Stars contains:
• 6 unique character miniatures
• 30 Swarmer miniatures
• 20 Jaeger miniatures
• 20 Icarus miniatures
• 1 Titan miniature
• 1 Titan miniature
• 9 game tiles
• 6 character dashboards
• 8 dice
• 150 cards
• 86 tokens

ChrisSolo5 10.0/10

Played a number of missions with a my family and friends, usually 5-6 players, each being diverse and fun to play! Rules are easy to follow and has some fantastic in-game mechanics! A must buy for any boardgame lover!

NeuralRemap 10.0/10

This was such a fun game! We played all evening and frankly, we all wanted to play more. We got our hands on the 1.5 edition and while I think some things could still be made clearer in the rules, the overall game was a blast once we really got going! Its made to not be brutal and I think we'll implement some house rules to make it more challenging in the future, but definitely no regrets!

PSNIFFER 10.0/10

Great game, the art, the miniatures are simply awesome. Picked up the rules pretty quickly, hours of fun. Slowly working my way through the campaigns with my gaming group. Ive already got many others hooked on ETS, I'm sure I've got at least 5-6 takers once you release this at retail. Good work GG, :)

Simonoliver 10.0/10

Awesome game, easy to understand the rules pick up and get playing quickly. Great to have the quick scenarios as well as the campaign

Rappabeach 9.0/10

So far, so good. Managed to play a couple of missions and everything seems to work nicely. I'll update my score once I've had a chance to run a full campaign. UPDATE: Made it (barely) through my first campaign and it's a keeper for me. The Refuge works really nicely and I can't wait to jump back in! UPDATE #2: Played it to death, very happy and am in for 1.5.
