The game is set in the same universe as Voidfall. Humanity is fleeing from a devastating cosmic threat known as the Voidborn, and the last hope of civilization lies aboard the massive ship Revenant, which carries the accumulated knowledge and achievements of humankind. Players take on the roles of admirals from different factions who must protect the fleeing fleet while also securing political influence for the future.
What makes the game unique is that it is not only about collective survival. While everyone is fighting against a common external enemy, each player must also look after the interests of their allies and chosen factions. This creates an engaging tension between cooperation and competition.
Revenant is primarily a worker placement game in which players assign their crew members to various ships within the fleet to perform actions.
Key mechanics include:
- Worker placement
- Resource management
- Engine building
- Gaining influence with different Great Houses and factions
- Defending the fleet against Voidborn attacks
- Shifting alliances and strong player interaction
Throughout the game, you will explore planets, gather resources, upgrade ships and crew, destroy enemies, and strive to keep the most important parts of the fleet alive. If certain ships are destroyed, this affects the actions available to players and the final scoring.
Revenant is a tense sci-fi strategy game that combines the defense of humanity’s last fleet with a struggle for political influence, offering players a wealth of challenging decisions. 🚀
