Precognition

Players take the role of Prescients aboard a riverboat in a post-apocalyptic world, using limited foresight to rescue contaminated Humans and keep them alive. Over 12 rounds, players use a Dual Select System to choose and pass cards; one of the two passed cards returns on the next turn, so planning and anticipation shape choices. During each round players simultaneously decide, then activate cards to gain resources such as Batteries, Food, Doctors and Protectors, power machine rooms, treat contamination, and defend the boat from threats. River tiles advance events each turn and every three rounds players must feed healed Humans. The game ends after the final season; the winner is the player with the most Healthy Humans, with ties broken by total rescued Humans.
