SUMMARY:
In the year 2475 world nations race to save the past and control the use of time travel.

STORY:
The amount of anomalies created through time travel in the 25th century has become a major world concern. The FTCN (Federation of Time-Traveling Capable Nations) has voted that all nations must give up their time travel capabilities. A single task force of “time editors” (agents that specialize in changing the timeline) will be kept on standby in the event that they are needed to save humanity from any possible future disasters. Only the nation with the most skilled time editors will retain their use of time travel. The task force of time editors will be chosen through a “time editing” trial. The first nation to prevent four disastrous past events will retain the use of time travel and will have command of the official global task force of time editors.​

PLAY:
Players explore planets, build mining colonies, mine resources and transport them to Earth. Resources are used to buy items, buy cards, open wormholes in space (for faster travel), open wormholes in time (to change the past), and pay time editing specialists.

Each player has 4 types of time editing specialists. Each specialist has a unique ability. When they travel back in time they can act to change the past but you lose their abilities in the present. You can choose to send 1 to 4 specialists back in time if you have the necessary resources. Any resources that you take to the past can only be used in the past. Any resources you choose to leave in the present can only be used in the present.

Each player has unique disasters to prevent. In order to change the time line and prevent a disaster, you must change the events leading up to the disaster. Certain specialists are needed to change specific events, but you do not know which event will cause a ripple through time and prevent the disaster. Attempts at changing the time line involve storytelling and pulling time ripple tiles.

To win the game you must prevent 4 disastrous events in the past from happening (or 3 for a shorter game).
