Entropy

Entropy

• Created by the minds behind Newton, Darwin's Journey, and Barrage.
• Quick turns, smooth gameplay, and minimal downtime.
• Numerous strategies to explore.
• Vibrant artwork with a stunning table presence.

For aeons, entropy was an inescapable force of nature. But then humanity evolved to understand it, harness it, and even bend it to their purpose. Your life has been devoted to learning how to shape the very workings of the universe to your will...or rather, to the will of your people. You are to become a scientist, a member of the most revered caste.

Now the time has come for the final exam. You must prove you can create new solar systems, coax stars into life, shape a range of biomes, and ultimately seed planets with life. It may only be a simulation, but its outcome will define everything that follows. 

You drift into a vast, silent chamber, and your gaze settles on a small console at its center. Its few buttons seem modest, almost unassuming, yet each one summons a sweeping holographic vision of space unfurling before you. There are limits to what you can do here; this is science, not magic. You feel the calm certainty of preparation settle over you. 

And you are not alone. Across the complex, fellow apprentices step into their own chambers, beginning the same trial. Only one will rise to join the caste. This is your moment of truth. 

In Entropy, players build Solar Systems with Stars, Planets, and Asteroids, then fill them with Life, by playing cards. Players may gain various special abilities by adding Biomes and upgrading their console. The player with the most Victory Points (VP) at the end of the game is the winner.
