Hallo zusammen,

da unser Spiel eventuell etwas Erklärung benötigt, haben wir ein Hilfedokument geschrieben, um es ein wenig zu erklären. Dies findet ihr Nachfolgend.

Viel Erfolg!

1920: A Space Odyssey

Story

It is the year 1920 and organized crime has split up the world. The only thing that is left? Space of course. A merciless race to the far end of the solar system begins.

Will you be the victor and lead your family to the top? Or will you be left behind and forgotten in the annals of history?

The Goal

Be the first organization to reach the end of the solar system: Neptune.

Gameplay

Investments and returns

The game is basically just an economic simulation. You invest into different areas and get a return out of it.

There are three major areas where you can invest into, and get a return out of, and one special one that will be explained a bit later.

The three areas are:

1. Redlight

2. Financials and

3. Drugs

Each has six subcategories, which in turn have two options to invest in.

The market takes into account how many competitors are currently competing in that specific market, and your share will be according to your investment in that market. So pay attention that you won’t get buried.

Also don’t forget to bribe the cops! (In the fourth area). They have a nasty habit of taking some of your revenue in the most unfortunate moment.

Leaving the planet

Once you have enough disposable income, you can leave the planet. For that, you have to launch a rocket.

Each expedition costs a lot of money, so try to prepare as best as you can. This is where the fourth area comes into play: it lets you sabotage the expeditions of your competitors and lower the cost of your own expeditions.

Once you funded an expedition, one of two things will happen:

1. It will land successfully on the new planet or

2. It will explode in space.

Once an expedition lands on another planet, you are free to invest into the different areas all over again to increase your profits and fund the expedition to the next planet.

Keep your goal in mind: Reach Neptune!

Tips and Tricks

Try to focus on areas where you can get a big enough market share. You will see much higher “Return on Investment”s.

Sabotaging other parties only works on the planet they are currently on. So don’t invest in hackers on earth if no one you are worried about is still there.

Being the first on a planet is always worth it! You are the only one that can build on that planet so you always have 100% of the market share.

Good luck brave entrepreneur! The stars await!
