Vol de Nuit (Night Flight) is inspired by the masterpiece of Antoine de Saint-Exup ry. The game is meant as a tribute to Saint-Exup ry s work, and was realized in partnership with the Fondation Saint-Exup ry. Fly through the night until you see the first light of the day, or sink into the dark ocean of a dawnless flight. In this cooperative game from 2 to 5, players are a team of airmail pilots of the A ropostale, tasked with delivering the mail from Patagonia. However, many dangers await them along their night flight: storms, wind, fog, and other disturbances. To win, they ll need to communicate and cooperate, maintain hope, and stay alive until dawn. You must cooperate to move the plane on the board, avoiding as many dangerous spaces as possible. Your crew s goal is to fly until dawn, and see the sun rise on a new day. To advance, you must prepare a detailed Flight Plan – however, the quality of your communications will depend on many cards, as well as on the Hope Gauge that will progressively decrease as your group encounters various disturbances cards. To go forward, you ll need to elaborate your strategy, listen to each other, and trust the Captain of the turn. Each turn has three phases : drawing phase, planning phase and the piloting phase, where you ll move the Plane token. If you manage to reach a Dawn Hex, then you all win! You ll be able to deliver the mail, and live to see another day. If you run out of Hope however, or if you exhaust your Fuel Stack, then the game is lost: the plane crashed into the deep of the night. Vol de Nuit / Night Flight offers many components: 6 double-sided combinable terrain boards to play games that differ from each other, 3 Relay Tiles for a special game mode, and more than 150 cards! —description from publisher
