Seismic

ETA: Date TBA

From the Atlas Games website: "The industrious yet short-sighted Seismic Asphalt & Paving Company -- located in the sleepy town of San Andreas, California -- has put you in charge of one of its many road crews. Your job is to build a network of roadways around San Andreas proper. But San Andreas is rather prone to earthquakes, which have a tendency to destroy the beautiful stretches of pavement you've been laying. After all the asphalt is put down, which road crew will end up connecting the most highway in between quakes?"

In Seismic, players place hexagonal highway tiles to build long, complete sections of highways, scoring points for each tile as well as bonus points for the ending "intersection" tiles in their routes. Scores aren't tallied until the end of the game, because at any time, earthquakes can occur, destroying tiles along the most-built direction leading out from the central "San Andreas" tile. Players constantly need to be claiming as many long roadways as possible while ensuring that their highways aren't the ones that are going to be destroyed if and when an earthquake occurs.

Earthquake Central: The World of Seismic
You're in charge of a road crew for the Seismic Asphalt & Paving Company. It's a big job with a lot of responsibility without your crew and the roads you build, the people of San Andreas can't go anywhere.
There's just one problem. Frequent earthquakes keep tearing down the roads. Can you keep ahead of the destruction and create longer roads than the other crews?

Road to Destruction: Gameplay Basics
Seismic is a light tile placement game. During their turn, each player draws a road tile, plays a tile, and places a road crew to claim it as their own.
When a quake tile appears, devastation results! A line of tiles emitting from San Andreas is completely obliterated.
Place your tiles carefully and choose the path of destruction that keeps your roads safe and destroys the competition.
