Battlestar Galactica: The Board Game
Your Friends Could Be Are(!) Cylons
Battlestar Galactica: The Board Game provides a unique gaming experience. Unlike most games where players win individually, Battlestar Galactica is a cooperative game, with the added complication that one or more of the players is a secret Cylon traitor - your entire side will win or lose, and you might not even be certain who is on your side until the game ends!
Each player is secretly assigned his or her loyalty at the start of the game. Players will either be loyal to the humans, or to the Cylons. The human players win by reaching Kobol, but the Galactica will be be threatened by a host of challenges along the way. Only through the cooperation of the humans will the ship (and fleet) survive. The Cylon player(s) wins by either destroying the Galactica with attacks from the Cylon fleet, or, through sabotage, by reducing one of the necessary resources (Food, Fuel, Population, or Morale) to zero.
Players' identities are secret and no one will know for certain at the beginning of the game who they can trust. Can you trust the other players to watch out for Humanity's interests? Or are they Cylons bent on destroying Humanity?
If you're a fan of the hit SyFy Channel show, and want to simulate the twists and turns on your game table, then Battlestar Galactica is the game you have been waiting for!
