Captain's Log, some asteroids pierced and destroyed our spaceship, fortunately the entire crew, although adrift, is safe. I send this help message to request the coordinates of the nearest Space Station, our suits will be able to use the energy of the celestial bodies to propel us in the right direction and keep us safe... for now. Anomaly is a solitaire game, were you must guide to safety your crew and save them from a deadly black hole affected by the Anomaly. On your turn you must do 1 Action and then the Anomaly will take a turn. This will continue until the game ends. Actions: Contact: Match and Swap 1 Sector Card from your hand with 1 Sector Card from the space, flip both cards and receive Energy Points from the Sectors of the Space. Then use that Energy to move the Astronauts on the Space board and to the Space Station. Investigate: Take the Sector Card on the Black Hole space, shift all the Sectors from the right of the Black Hole, to the left, to refill the empty Sector. Play a Sector Card from your hand to the end of the Space board. Beware! All the Energy that you didn't use to move the Astronauts, will be consumed by the Anomaly! Causing it to move closer to the Black Hole and altering it! But don't worry to much, you have Technology Cards that can be use by the Astronauts at the Space Station to help you with this mission. To win the game, you must guide ALL the Astronauts to the Space Station. You will lose the game if at least 1 Astronaut is trapped by the Black Hole or if the Black Hole reaches the Space Station. Plan your strategy, Manage your Energy Sources and Save your Crew! —description from the publisher
