The Paradox Initiative is played on a Bejeweled-like grid of discs, also incorporating a blend of familiar mechanics like card drafting, set collection, and resource management. Players assume the roles of mad scientists who are competing to steal strands of spacetime from all over the universe. But each strand that is stolen sends ripples throughout the universe that will close off wormholes to entire worlds and generations (quoted from Elf Creek Games)!
Players are Mad Scientists? I love it already!
This is nice to see it's finally happening (I didn't remember it but I had already written the date in the calendar; I think they postponed the game so many times I don't consider any given date with a lot of faith, but this time it does look serious).
