    Description

    Angelic creatures descended from Heaven! Kings of the whole Europe joyfully welcome Aliens, and ?hurch declares them as envoys from the Paradise.
    But there is one tiny trouble - marvelous creatures do not speak Latin! They do not understand either Arabic or Greek. However, they strongly want Brave Knights and Fair Maidens to travel with them to the stars.

    Players are divided into medieval humans and aliens, who came with a friendly visit. Now they have to find a common language and decide which alien ships will go to the stars with humans onboard.

    Players take turns: first one of humans, then one of the aliens, then again one of the earthlings, etc.
    Humans use cards with medieval objects that are on the table or with already played cards from their hands and try to identify which symbols can aliens use to name objects.
    Then one of the Aliens invites humans on the ship he has chosen for departure in this round by using symbolic description. The rest of Aliens are betting - where else can humans go by mistake.

    The game continues until humans send all their representatives into space. The winner among Aliens is the one who have collected the highest amount of humans on their ships. The winner among humans is the one who sent more people into space and revealed most of the words from alien language, which are defined by his card of secret goal.

    We tried to pay attention to all questions and suggestions from players in First Contact original game. So this time we made gameplay more diverse and deep, managed to solve the problem of active involvement of all players in each round, and in the end our game is more competitive now.

    First contact: The Second Coming is compatible with the original game and you can still play this version with original rules.
