Clockworker

ETA: Date TBA

Earth was devastated by humanity's highly advanced scientific civilization. Humanity abandoned the resource-depleted Earth, leaving behind only outdated robots. Years later, awakened to self-awareness, they begin to operate the factories and machines left behind by humanity...

Clockworker is a worker placement game for 2 to 4 players. Restart the ruined factories, acquire resources, and use those resources to reinvent the technologies left behind by humanity. Acquiring artifacts will grant you new special abilities and victory points.

The key to this game lies in how you place your workers and the timing of when they acquire resources. Each worker placement card has multiple spaces, and workers can only be placed from top to bottom. Resources can be acquired when collecting workers, but only from the turn after the worker was placed, and only one worker at a time can be collected from the top. While waiting for your workers to return at different times, efficiently accumulate victory points.

This remake of the classic time-delay worker placement game is based on "Planetrico," a work by Norikachi of the board game production circle "Yontousei," with a newly developed system and artwork. In addition to adjusting the abilities of the cards, a new victory point strategy called "Record Tiles" has been added. Two-player rules have also been added. The components have also been made more luxurious, and the cute little workers are worth seeing!
