Description Description
Our planet has run out of resources, and we are forced to move. We have discovered a series of planets and sent our rovers to test their environment with the hope of colonization. Our rovers have confirmed 1-6 viable colonization options. Planet Unknown is a competitive game for 1-6 players where players build and develop the best planet to win! Each player has a goal of developing the best planet in Planet Unknown. Each round, each player will place one dual resourced tile on their planet, which is a polyomino shape. Each resource represents the infrastructure needed to support life on the planet. Every tile placement is important to cover your planet efficiently and also to build up your planet's engine. After placing the tile, players do two actions associated with the two infrastructure types on the tile. Be careful because some tile placements will trigger "meteors" that make all planets harder to develop and prevent it from scoring points in its row AND column. Planet Unknown innovates on the popular polyomino trend by allowing simultaneous yet strategic turn-based play via the Lazy S.U.S.A.N. space station in the center of the table. The game also condenses a 3-hour medium weight game into about 70 minutes for 1-6 players no matter the player count.

How many games have a lazy SUSAN?!? Love the tile placement and complexity on this one, just really hits the sweet spot for me. I also love that the turns are simultaneous.

aka Space Tetris - this is one of my favorite polyomino games. The simultaneous turns keeps things moving along. The lazy susan is both a goofy gimmick and awesome. Retail or deluxe? I went deluxe to get the extra planets / corps. But really, I played a retail copy and it was totally fine, no issues. I really like the variety of different planets. The alternate corporations, on the other hand - well, they are fine, but I strongly recommend having the FAQ handy, because there will be questions.

Updated deluxe version in english. A lot of fun, really challenging in solo mode. With the Susan cover an upgrade for the order of the box.

All people terraform at the same time. Plenty of combinations of planets and corporations and moon expansion give replayability. Enjoyable puzzler.

There are such a few games like Planet Unknown that you can play a 6-player game under an hour and everyone ask to play another game back to back. Such a great game! Setup is very quick but tear down is a little cumbersome. Teaching to newbies takes just 10-15 minutes. Play time is under an hour for every player count! Fabulous game! Deserves a solid 10 for the joy it brings to my family :)
