Featuring easy mechanics and a nimble pace, Parsec is a truly teachable game for everyone. It boasts rich, compelling Euro-style competitive gameplay as each player races to improve their positions to garner the most points and technology progress between scoring rounds. Careful placement of drawn tiles featuring sections of planets, nebulae, asteroid fields, and more is half the game, while maneuvering your rocket and carefully assigning its compliment of robots for control of these key locations is equally important.
