GAME mechanics

  • Scenario / Mission / Campaign: The game is structured on three levels of engagement. The "Scenario" refers to individual parts of the game, each with its own objectives and challenges. A "Mission" encompasses several scenarios that share a common theme or objective, while the "Campaign" is an ongoing series of interconnected missions that form the game's overall narrative. Progression through these structures allows players to experience a narrative and strategic journey that evolves over time.
  • Open Buy: In each round, players have the opportunity to purchase cards or items from a common market visible to all. This means that all the cards or items available for purchase are known to the players, allowing a strategy based on anticipating the actions of opponents and managing one's own resources.
  • Cooperative: ISS Vanguard is a team game where players work together to achieve common goals. The challenges and missions are structured in such a way as to require collaboration and effective communication between players, each with their own role in contributing to the team's success. Cooperative mechanics are central to the game experience.
  • Narrative Choice: During the campaign, players face different narrative choices that influence the course of the story and the development of the game. These decisions can lead to ramifications in the plot, altering the course of future events and the fate of the characters, providing a unique experience with each playthrough.
  • Players with Different Skills: Each player takes control of a character with specific and distinct abilities. These skills are used to solve challenges and complete missions. The choice and development of the character's skills are crucial to the team's success, encouraging the formation of an effective collective strategy.
  • Storytelling: Storytelling mechanics are integrated into the gameplay through events, cards and interactions between characters. The game is strongly guided by a rich narrative, where players' decisions shape the fictional world and affect the outcomes of missions and the campaign in general.
