Description Edit | History

From the publisher:

Android is a board game of murder and conspiracy set in a dystopian future. Detectives travel between the city of New Angeles and moon colony Heinlein chasing down leads, calling in favors, and uncovering the sinister conspiracy beneath it all. The detectives must balance their pursuit of the murderer against their personal lives and their inner demons. Android’s innovative mechanics ensure that no two detectives play alike. Will you play as Louis Blaine, the crooked cop tormented by guilt and loss? Or will you take the role of Caprice Nisei, the psychic clone who struggles to retain her sanity while proving that she’s as human as anyone else? Whoever you choose to play, you’ve got just two weeks to solve the murder, uncover the conspiracy, and face your personal demons.

10 Cooperative Android Rules
These are the rules for a co-op (or solo) version of Android. It incorporates the concept of a nemesis for the players - a 'Triad' of conspiracy members who will oppose their efforts to solve the murder (and their involvement in it). Please playtest and suggest changes!

1 Tabella dei bagagli emotivi negativi
Tabella dei bagagli emotivi: serve per ricordare in che modo dare bagagli emotivi negativi agli avversari, in base al personaggio, al colore della sua Trama della settimana e alla carta specifica che è in gioco. Consiglio di stamparne tante copie, darne una a ogni giocatore, e eventualmente segnare a penna o matita le Trame in corso, e cancellare quelle vecchie o non usate. Table of negative emotional baggage: useful for reminding how to give bad baggage to your opponents. It's divided according to character, color of the Plot card for the week, and current plot card. I suggest making serveral copies of the table, give one to each player, and mark with a pen or pencil past plots, current plots or delete unused plots/characters.

14 Baggage Reference
A single color-coded page with condensed descriptions of the good and bad baggage conditions for each player's plots. Useful for keeping track of how to hurt your friends at any given time. "(2)" means "player gains two baggage," everything else should be self-explanatory. (Inspired by the plot guides made by bleached lizard and hyphz.)

88 Android: The Director's Cut v3.0
The final version of The Director's Cut alternate rules! These rules address many of the disparities between theme and gameplay in a game of Android, including rules to: * Turn the murder into a true deductive experience (with a "real" murderer). * Extensive rule changes for the conspiracy, to make the placement of every tile worthwhile, reduce the overpowered nature of the conspiracy overall and eliminate the unthematic 5-in-a-row rules. * Allow each investigator to experience their game "day" concurrently rather than consecutively (and reduce downtime). * Adjust how dark cards are drawn and played to be more in theme with what is happening on the board. * Give NPCs more involvement in the unfolding story and allow some characters to "crossover" into another detective's story....
