EXO: Mankind Reborn

Players take the roles of chosen heroes from underground tribes in a post‑apocalyptic world where humanity survives in caves and the surface is dominated by insect swarms attuned to a strange EXO‑energy. The game is cooperative and campaign‑driven: each scenario sets mission objectives and nightly disasters. Play splits into day and night phases. During the day players assign pawns to actions on their dashboard—moving and attacking, extracting resources or EXO‑energy, acquiring upgrades, resting, building structures, or moving a drone—and then resolve those actions in player‑chosen order. At night the group spends gathered resources to endure disasters and advances the mission story. Victory comes from completing the scenario objective; defeat occurs if a human character dies or a plague breaks out.
