I really love this game - the idea of stranded StarTrek-ish crew trying to find each other on an alien planet is awesome.

I think the crew roles could be expanded. I know there is a right of veto, but the game doesn't mention much about describing the POIs, so it doesn't seem like it is a big part of the game. Maybe you can also give each role some mechanical "skill" like in board games? Not sure what they would be yet, but it is something to think about.

Also, I know that English is not your first language, but I would love to see more thematic vocabulary. I would use Scanner / Tricoder instead of Oracle, for example ("Check your tricoder readings" is much more thematic than "consult the Oracle"). Also, maybe adding more alien entries to the Oracle table?

I really like the idea behind this game, I think, if you expanded it a bit it would be an awesome game!

Hi, Fred!

I really appreciate your comment. There are a couple of things I hadn’t thought about or didn’t give it much thought at first and now I really want to develop!

First of all you’re right about the roles of the players. I don’t know if I want to give everyone a power like in a board game, but I definitely need to get a better understanding of how players can interact with each other.

And you’re also right about making some terms more thematic!
About the Oracle: I initially looked up something about it on Star Trek and saw that there was a character called “Oracle”. I used that name, but I really like the idea of using a more thematic term (I really like “Tricoder”, thank you!).

I will definitely fix the Oracle table in the future. I don’t want to make it 50/50 between locations and cultural stuff, but I’ll think about how to give more details about the alien population (for now both the row and the column of 6 have references to a culture, but I could put more).

Thank you very much for your comment!
Bye!

Ciao Fred!

Ho davvero molto apprezzato il tuo commento. Ci sono un paio di cose a cui non avevo pensato o non ci ho dato peso inizialmente e ora voglio assolutamente sviluppare!

Prima di tutto hai ragione su quel che riguarda i ruoli dei giocatori. Non so se voglio dare un potere ad ognuno come in un gioco da tavolo, ma sicuramente devo far capire meglio come i giocatori possono interagire tra di loro.

E hai ragione anche sul rendere alcuni termini più tematici!
Per l’Oracolo: Inizialmente ho cercato qualcosa a riguardo su Star Trek e avevo visto che c’era un personaggio chiamato “Oracolo”. Ho usato quel nome, ma mi piace molto di più l’idea di usare il termine di un oggetto più tematico (mi piace molto “Tricoder”, grazie!).

In futuro aggiusterò sicuramente la tabella Oracolo. Non voglio fare in modo che sia 50/50 tra luoghi del territorio e cose della cultura, ma penserò a come dare più dettagli a ciò che riguarda la popolazione aliena (per ora entrambe la riga e la colonna del 6 hanno riferimenti ad una cultura,ma potrei metterne di più).

Grazie mille del tuo commento!
Ciao!
