Mechanics (from transcript analysis)
  • crystallization_phase — After four turns, the game enters crystallization: tiles are flipped, certain rooms become crystallized, and rescues occur.
  • door_match_memory — When a neurorider passes through a door with matching halves, the color gains one memory; if the rider is the same color, it gains an extra memory.
  • draw_and_add_room_tile — At the start of a turn, the player draws a room tile from the display and adds it to their hand before placement.
  • End Game Bonuses — The game can end if the memory supply is depleted, the entire map crystallizes, or a track overload occurs.
  • endgame_conditions — The game can end if the memory supply is depleted, the entire map crystallizes, or a track overload occurs.
  • hidden_agenda_scoring — End-of-round scoring uses each player's hidden agenda value alongside track values and unspent actions.
  • move_neuroriders — Neuroriders may be moved through actions or door connections, with rules about paths and memory gains.
  • place_room_into_map — Choose a room from hand and add it to the map, ensuring at least one door connects to an existing room.
  • play_action_card — Each turn allows optional play of one of three action cards (A, B, or C) to manipulate the board state.
  • rescue_neuroriders — Crystallized neuroriders must be rescued to a nearest non-crystallized room, with associated crystallization costs.
