Th.B.A.Th.: The Battle Against Th.E.Y.

Th.B.A.Th - The Battle Against Th.E.Y. is a Victorian Quantum-Technological Race Against Th.E.Y (The Entangled.You), where you play as a Victorian scientist who inadvertently caused a quantum version of yourself in a parallel world to become entangled with your own self. That version of you is Th.E.Y. - The Entangled.You - and Th.E.Y. will try and become the only You in the universe, which you will, obviously, need to fight against and ensure you will be the only You in the universe. You have only 24 hours (rounds) to create a technology to solve this problem - BUT there is a catch, EVERYTHING you do will cause Th.E.Y. to do the same thing in their parallel world and you will need to plan your steps carefully to ensure you will get the best outcome out of each action you take. Also, now that we are talking about it, would destroying Th.E.Y. mean that you get destroyed also? Better think about it further and, maybe, play a game of ‘tie.’ A 40´-60´ Euro resource gathering, action selection, engine/ tableau building, and set Collection game for ages 12 and up, with a VERY simple AI to manage (the AI´s actions are directly related to yours, which means there is no downtime for you, and everything is under your control during the whole game), where the objective of the game is to control the game actions to ensure you will score either: Variant A – Compete: More than Th.E.Y. Variant B – Collaborate: As close as possible to Th.E.Y. Th.B.A.Th. was created as an entrant to the 2023 Solitaire Print and Play Contest here in BoardGameGeek. —description from the designer
