About this board game

Drone Home is a 2020 board game for 2–4 players, with games lasting about 15 minutes. Players race to launch their aliens down ramps and land them inside the drone.

Landing inside the drone is not the end of the challenge. There is a delay once an alien makes it in, giving other players a chance to knock it out before the drone lifts off.

  • Launch aliens down the ramps.
  • Try to land them inside the drone.
  • Watch for the delay, when other players can knock aliens out.
  • Use a successful escape to move closer to victory.

If an alien stays in the drone and escapes when the drone lifts off, you are one step closer to winning. Every launch creates a race between getting an alien safely inside and seeing whether it can remain there long enough to escape.

To win, get rid of all your aliens before anyone else does. Drone Home turns that goal into a contest of launches, timing, and surviving the brief window when an alien can still be knocked out.
