Signal and Noise

Embark on a solo space adventure with Signal and Noise, where you command a fleet of bots on a distant planet. Your objective is simple yet challenging: guide each of these little robots to a different base and lock them there. How? By sending operational signals to a command queue that the bots will follow. But, as always, interplanetary communication is a hassle, and cosmic 'noise' will mess with your plans, inserting unexpected commands into your queue. Your mission is to outsmart the chaos and position your signals in the right order before time (or patience) runs out!

Signal and Noise is a solo game that blends Hand Management with Programmed Movement. You start with a handful of action cards and need to strategically insert them into the bots' order queue. Each turn, a new bot is activated, giving you more movement options, but also increasing the chance of one bot getting in another's way. The game flow is quite straightforward: you insert two cards from your hand into the queue, resolve the first two cards from the queue (moving or rotating any bot on the board), then reveal and insert two 'noise' cards into the queue, and resolve the first two again. To finish the turn, a new bot is activated (if any are left), you receive two more noise cards, and draw two new cards to your hand. Can you park all the bots on their bases before your signal gets lost in space?
