Isaac Asimov’s famous science fiction universe comes to life in Foundation, an asymmetric, card-driven strategy game. In this title designed by Mirko Bazzoli, the galaxy is plunging into chaos and savagery. Faced with the inevitable decline of the Galactic Empire, players take command of rival factions seeking to guide the fate of humanity through the famous Crises predicted by psychohistory.
On the gameplay side, the game offers intense showdowns for 2 to 5 players, with a playing time of approximately 80 to 120 minutes. Each player controls a unique faction featuring its own deck of cards, asymmetrical abilities, and a dedicated faction board. On each turn, the card played and its position on the board determine strategic actions, gathering technology, deploying agents across the galaxy, and recruiting key characters to build influence.
Combining hand management, territory control, and a strong narrative, Foundation is tailored for strategy enthusiasts looking for deep tactical choices. With an accessible complexity rating (3.00/5), the game promises tense matches where every decision shapes the future of the galactic board until the final Crisis is resolved.
