Overview
Paradox Initiative takes the familiar board game elements of card drafting, set collection, and resource management, then adds a Bejewelled-like grid of discs for each player to manipulate. The result is simple to learn, yet challenging to master, with players navigating three interlocking systems to grab as much spacetime as they can to be hailed the greatest (mad) scientist in the universe!

Features & Components
“Our newest discovery changes everything! Our paradox engine lets us manipulate paradox particles, the fundamental building blocks of reality. Past, present, and future—none are beyond our grasp, and nobody can stand in our way! Except, that is, maybe the frauds at that rival paradox lab down the street. Quickly, to the control room. Switch off the safeties, there’s renown to be won!”
