Night Flight is inspired by Antoine de Saint-Exupéry's masterpiece. The game is a tribute to Saint-Exupéry's work, and was created in partnership with the Saint-Exupéry Foundation. Fly through the night until you see the first light of day, or sink into the dark ocean of a flight without dawn. In this 2-5 player cooperative game, players take on the role of a team of Aeropostale pilots tasked with delivering the mail from Patagonia. However, many dangers await them throughout their night flight: storms, wind, fog and other disturbances. To win, they will have to communicate and cooperate, keep hope alive and stay alive until dawn.
You must work together to move the plane around the board, avoiding as many dangerous areas as possible. Your crew's goal is to fly until dawn, and see the sun rise on a new day. To advance, you must prepare a detailed flight plan - however, the quality of your communications will depend on many maps, as well as the hope gauge which will gradually decrease as your group encounters various disturbance maps. To move forward, you will need to develop your strategy, listen to each other, and trust the turn captain. Each turn has three phases: the drawing phase, the planning phase and the flying phase, where you move the Aircraft token.
If you manage to reach a dawn hex, then you've all won! You will be able to deliver the mail and live to see another day. However, if you run out of hope, or if you run out of fuel, then the game is lost: the plane has crashed into the deep night. Night Flight offers many components: 6 double-sided combinable terrain boards to play different games from each other, 3 Relay tiles for a special game mode, and more than 150 cards!
