They came for our resources... they came to annihilate us...
they came for our, cows?!
The 1950’s sci-fi feel, and the tense nature of the challenges make this a fantastic game in a short amount of time. ~Robert Kalajian, Purple Pawn
The hidden role / social deduction was there and was quite enticing. ~JT Smith, The Game Crafter
The game was fresh and exciting...Game after game, these kinds of sneaky and underhanded tactics came to the fore. ~The Meeple Pusher, BoardGameGeek reviewer
I had the pleasure of sitting in on several games of Mars vs Earth with the designers and it was a blast. It only took them five minutes to teach me to play and I was engrossed in the action.
~Stephen Duetzmann, Engaged Family Gaming
One rarely knows with 100% certainty what the right move is. Seldom does a game go by without plenty of laughing and yelling, false accusations and misdirection. ~Mike Linnetz, BoardGameGeek reviewer
Earth is Under Attack
In this alternate-reality, 1950’s era setting – we are not alone! Aliens from the planet Mars have secretly descended upon Earth. As a member of an elite multi-national squad, you must defend our home against the vicious, little green men as they try to abduct our wives, mutilate our cows and boil our oceans!
To complicate matters (if inside-out cows weren’t bad enough), the aliens can replicate our DNA and clone human beings. They know our agency is the last line of defense and they have infiltrated our ranks. That trusted partner of yours may actually be an alien spy! Hey, I don’t remember you holding your hand over your heart during the National Anthem – when was the last time your DNA was screened?
BONUS BACKSTORY: Interested in more backstory? Check out our Mars vs. Earth short story following some of the characters from the game on Kindle and Smashwords!!
About the game:
Mars vs. Earth is an outrageous card game, playable by 3 to 10 players in 30 to 60 minutes, that employs a rich "hidden loyalty" system. Mars vs. Earth introduces unique mechanics, such as scaled martian powers and a player driven accusation/trial system, that sit atop a wacky theme to maximize play value and enjoyment.
Think your neighbor is secretly working against the agency? Keep him from leading missions, or better yet make a formal accusation and bring him to trial for his evil deeds! Of course you need to be careful - if you accidentally oust a true human from the agency they will become a lowly civilian with far fewer powers to help combat the martian threats!
The game is over when either the humans have foiled enough of the martians' plans or the martians have destroyed every last human resource, be it military defenses, tech, people or food. In either case, Mars vs. Earth is guaranteed to create some of the greatest play experiences imaginable!
