The Tesseract appeared in our skies six days ago. Together, our world’s best minds must find a way to contain and control the reactions of this extra-dimensional avatar, or its exponentially increasing destructive power will tear a hole in space-time and remove our world from existence.

The game features a cube of 64 dice, sitting on a rotating platform to examine all angles. Players will use three actions to manipulate the cubes; removing them from the Tesseract, adjusting their values, transferring them between labs and isolating them into the Containment matrix.

Allow too many breaches or remove the last cube from the Tesseract, and the game is lost. Fill the matrix with 24 cubes, one of each colored value, and you save our world.

Customer Reviews (4.8 / 5 · 5 reviews)

David ★★★★★

The asymmetric roles hooked my group instantly—one player coordinates while the others scramble to contain the reactions. Turns move fast enough that nobody's waiting around, which keeps everyone tense the whole session.

Henry ★★★★★

The moment that timer flips and everyone starts shouting coordinates at once is pure chaos in the best way. We lost our first three games to the reaction track filling up, which somehow made me want to play again immediately.

Samuel E. ★★★★★

Played this with three friends and the tension of watching the reaction track creep toward the fail state had us all leaning over the table. The asymmetric roles mean nobody's just watching; everyone has a specific job each round. We lost our first two games and immediately set it up again.
