We've now made something weird and fantastic, and we call it The Ninth World: A Skillbuilding Game for Numenera
. One part deckbuilder, one part Eurogame, and one part RPG, The Ninth World
is something Lone Shark Games and Monte Cook Games want to bring to your table. Take a look and you'll see a game that goes beyond your expectations. The Ninth World is a card game for 1 to 5 players. It can be played competitively, cooperatively, or in solo mode.
The game is designed by Paul Peterson, Boyan Radakovich, and Mike Selinker, with graphics by Shane Tyree and the artists of Numenera
. The team at Monte Cook Games is also deeply involved in making this game what it is today.
Our game is set in the Numenera universe, where heroes explore the nine kingdoms of The Steadfast, each a very different place to adventure. They discover strange relics of the past, trying to discern which are powerful cyphers and which are just weird oddities. And they fight creatures of all shapes, sizes, and limb arrangements. Outside of the Steadfast is The Beyond, a wild and remote realm. And there are even places beyond The Beyond, awaiting your discovery.
To continue our journey, meet Nlixa
, a Nano who will serve as our guide.
Nlixa is one of 12 characters
in the game. Nlixa's a Nano
, a master of using relics. That's one of the 3 classes in the game. In addition to the Nano, a Jack
is a skilled explorer helping the settled towns with their quests, while a Glaive
is ready for combat against the growing danger of the roaming creatures from the wilderness.
You can see how we describe Nlixa: with an adjective
("I Am a Learned..."), noun
("...Nano..."), and verb phrase
("...Who Rides the Lightning"). Each of those parts describes a different element of Nlixa's character. The first two parts show what cards Nlixa gets and can use best, while the third describes a special power that changes gameplay.
Nlixa and the other characters will explore one of the nine kingdoms of The Steadfast—or they may venture into the even stranger lands of the Beyond. Each kingdom is illustrated with a set of 5 region cards
, such as Malevich shown here.
Over the course of a quick 5-round game
, Nlixa and friends will simultaneously explore the starting region on round 1, and then continue out to the Voil Chasm on the far reaches of the kingdom. In a standard game of 9 rounds
, they'll then head back home on the other side of the card.
Each round, Nlixa and the others will choose how much time to spend performing actions with their 5 skills— scouting
the wilderness, tinkering
with cyphers and oddities, charming
allies, combating
creatures, and focusing
on skill advancement—and then bid against the other heroes for the choicest cards.
Each phase, you can adventure in the town
, where rewards are predictable and creatures not so dangerous. Or you can head out to the wilderness
, where strange cyphers have unpredictable powers and the creatures look to bash you into oblivion.
Gameplay is simultaneous and every action is rewarded with victory points. Whoever has the most points at the end is the most legendary adventurer.
That's in competitive mode. In co-op mode
, you can work together to defeat the creatures and garner the relics, but there's a catch: the wilderness is trying to kill your town
. Cards flip off the wilderness deck whether you want them or not, and you have to take them out before the creatures destroy your town locations and the relics and quests make it impossible for you to win. It's a battle against time to see if your entire adventuring team can master the chaos of the wilderness. Or you can go it alone in solo mode
, which is like that except no one is there to help you.
