'Curt Covert,' a board game company with nearly 20 years of experience in the industry, recently launched a Kickstarter campaign for 'Tesseract,' its latest cooperative board game. Tesseract is poised as a "dice manipulation game" for one to four players at a time. Each round takes under two hours, but approximately one full hour. Throughout the game, players are tasked with working together to remove, adjust, and contain cubes from the Tesseract, the large block of cubes in the center of the board game.
The Tesseract is comprised of 64 custom dice that rotate on a powered platform. Each cube contains a different set of glyphs that host their own challenges to be stabilized. Each turn, a player may remove a cube from the tesseract, rotate the cube as they please, and move a cube from one research lab to another.
Tesseract is currently available for preorder on Curt Covert's official Kickstarter page for $50 USD.
