3000 SCOUNDRELS Engine-Builder Board Game Gets October Release Date

A couple of months ago, Asmodee announced a new engine-making board game from Unexpected Games called 3000 scoundrels. In the game you are trying to make the best rascal in an alternate Wild West setting to bluff your way to victory.

There are 60 clear work cards that can be mixed and matched with the 50 characteristic cards for thousands of different combinations and help make each game unique. Unexpected Games recently announced it 3000 scoundrels will be available on October 7 with pre-orders now open via Asmodee or Amazon with an MSRP of $ 49.95.

In 3000 Scoundrels, 2-4 players enter an alternate story, the Wild West, taking on the roles of leaders of rival crews attempting to steal futuristic technology left behind by a mysterious man known only as the Traveler. During the game, players build their team of rascals by overlaying transparent “job cards” with “trait cards”, creating an ideal team for their strategy. Each turn, they will play a poker card face down, so they will use all their villains that match that card, but they don’t need to tell the truth … and experienced players will understand the power of bluffing to reach the top. At the end of the game, the player with the most technology will claim victory and determine the fate of the American frontier.

3000 scoundrels was designed by Corey Konieczka who previously worked on amazing games like Battlestar Galactica: The board game, Star Wars: RebellionAnd Mansions of Madness First edition. These are great games, so I’m very excited about this new game of him.
