Timelancers

About this board game

Timelancers is a time travel-themed set-collection board game for 1–4 players, with play taking about 70 minutes. Set in the 22nd century, it casts players as freelance time travelers hired by rival political factions to reshape the future.

Your mission begins in Janusburg, the city of the future. Move through its locations to gather the resources required for your plans, then use your time machine to revisit historical events from different eras.

As you travel through time, collect real historical events for your faction and build the collection needed to earn victory points. Events can be revised or repeated, letting you change the past in pursuit of your goals.

• Worker movement: Move through locations in Janusburg while gathering useful resources.
• Set collection: Collect historical events from different eras to earn victory points.
• Time travel: Use your time machine to revise or repeat events from history.
• Modular board: Play across a game board with a modular layout.

You are not the only timelancer working to reshape the future. Other players’ actions can affect your progress, creating a race to accomplish your goals before your rivals do.

With its combination of resource gathering, worker movement, historical event collection, and competitive time travel, Timelancers turns the struggle over history into a race for victory points.
