Vantage Open-World Cooperative Adventure Board Game

About this product

Crash-land on an unknown planet and explore it from your own point of view.

A huge standalone cooperative adventure from Stonemaier Games, designed by Jamey Stegmaier.

A cinematic open-world exploration board game where 1–6 players discover a mysterious planet together, while each player sees a different part of the world.

Product Description

Step into a massive sci-fi adventure with Vantage, an open-world cooperative board game where every player begins scattered across an uncharted planet.

After your intergalactic vessel crashes, you and your companions must explore, investigate, survive, and communicate from different locations. Each player views the world from a first-person perspective, meaning only you can see your current location — but teamwork, smart choices, and clear communication can help everyone move closer to victory.

With hundreds of connected locations, story-driven discoveries, custom dice, character abilities, missions, destinies, and plenty of hidden surprises, Vantage gives your table a full planet to explore in a single self-contained box.
