Ark Nova

Contracts

You fulfill specific orders or contracts for rewards — choosing which ones to pursue is a big decision.

End Game Bonuses

Extra points are awarded at the end for meeting certain goals — keep an eye on those bonus objectives!

Events

Random events shake things up during the game — sometimes helpful, sometimes chaotic, always interesting.

Hand Management

You have a hand of cards and deciding which to play, save, or discard is the core puzzle.

Hexagon Grid

The board uses hexagons instead of squares — this gives you more directions to move and think about.

Income

You earn resources automatically each round based on what you've built up — the snowball effect is real.

Race

It's all about getting to the finish first — every move counts when you're sprinting toward the goal.

Set Collection

You're gathering matching groups of cards or tokens to score points — the more complete your sets, the better you do.

Solo / Solitaire Game

You can play this one all by yourself — perfect for a quiet evening when you want a fun challenge on your own.
