The Pioneers Program is a post-apocalyptic, town building board game for 3-6 players.

Players can plan, build, venture into the wastes or complete research on their harsh new world. Actions are limited and players need to choose wisely how to spend them. Each round players select a new survivor to help them, each brings their own strengths and selecting wisely is important, as is gaining turn order to allow you to choose sooner rather than later.

Grow too quickly and you may face unwanted attention. Balancing the size of your town with food production and defensive capabilities is essential and made all the more difficult by hordes of Viralz, the new race of ascendants or even a marauding gang of bikers.
