About this board game
Manhattan Project: War Machine is a strategy board game for 1–4 players, with a play time of about 60 minutes. Lead a nation preparing for war and work to develop the largest military power in the world.
Build an efficient production engine by deploying a skilled workforce, constructing structures, and providing the supplies your nation needs. The most effective way to feed your war machine is to combine the right works, create structures that interact well, and generate and use energy efficiently.
You can earn Victory Points in several ways throughout the game:
- Produce and stockpile military goods in your warehouse.
- Acquire structure cards and action dice.
- Complete the goal shown on your achievement tile.
- Expand your nation’s infrastructure.
- Clean up nuclear contamination in your nation.
Careful deployment and development are central to Manhattan Project: War Machine. Your workforce, structures, energy, military goods, and infrastructure all contribute to the growth of your nation and its progress toward victory.
The game ends at the end of the designated round, determined by the number of players. Add the Victory Points earned from the game’s various elements to determine the winner. If players are tied, the nation with the most total resources remaining breaks the tie and wins.
