About the game
What you do in a play session
Imagine absolute chaos: a space station is about to be incinerated upon reentry into Earth's atmosphere, and you are right in the middle of it. But don't worry, you aren't alone! There's a dozen characters—humans, robots, and even things you can't even identify—wandering the corridors. The catch? You have no idea who to trust. You'll have collaborators to assist you, but watch out: any one of them could be a secret traitor with goals that clash entirely with yours. Stationfall is a game of conspiracy and survival where tension ramps up as the clock ticks down. Every turn is a race against time and betrayal. You'll need to use every action point to navigate this hostile environment, trying to deduce identities while pursuing your own secret objectives. The mechanics are deep and information is asymmetric, meaning what you know might be vastly different from what your opponents know. The beauty (and danger) of Stationfall lies in its unpredictability: victory conditions can shift as players act, and the station can become a much more lethal place than it initially seems. If you enjoy games where paranoia is the norm and your strategy must be as swift as the imminent disaster, get ready for an intense and twisty experience.
