In A Message From the Stars, a team of scientists seeks to decipher cryptic messages from an extraterrestrial civilization.

Set against a backdrop of cosmic mystery, players take on the roles of brilliant scientists tasked with decoding a series of perplexing satellite transmissions. These transmissions are believed to contain vital messages from an alien race that could hold the key to the destiny of Earth. The catch? The messages are incomprehensible, written in an entirely unknown alien language.

Using engrossing deduction mechanics, players will collaborate with their fellow scientists to send messages back to the extraterrestrial senders. By exchanging these messages, you hope to unravel the intricate linguistic code that conceals the true intentions of the alien entity. Each interaction yields a numerical value, a piece of the puzzle that you'll need to solve the riddle of the alien language.

Players can engage in cooperative gameplay, where all scientists pool their collective intellect to crack the alien code and unveil the hidden message. Alternatively, delve into team play, with two alien players sending messages across the galaxy.

The future of interstellar relations lies in your hands!

Eva P. ★★★★★

The alien cipher puzzles had us huddled around the table for hours, and the way the scientist roles force you to debate every clue made the mystery feel genuinely tense. I loved that even a wrong guess about a message didn’t ruin the run—it just added another layer to the story.

Matthew ★★★★★

The cooperative gameplay really shines—each message discovery feels like a genuine breakthrough. I love how the scientists' roles have unique abilities that make every round feel fresh. It's quickly become our go-to game night pick.

Evelyn E. ★★★★★

The puzzle of deciphering the alien symbols really pulls you in — our group was debating meanings for hours. It feels cleverly balanced, so no one person dominates the game.
