Since 2016, astronomers have been searching for a large, distant planet to explain the unique orbits of objects in our solar system.
In THE SEARCH FOR PLANET X, a tabletop board game from Foxtrot Games, you will take on the role of these astronomers, using observations and logical deductions to search for this distant planet. The game uses a companion app to randomly choose a location for Planet X and other objects, following predefined logic rules.
As the earth travels around the sun, you will interact with the app to perform various research actions. You'll note what you learn on your deduction sheet, and you'll be able to piece together all the available information to publish theories and score points.
THE SEARCH FOR PLANET X captures the thrill of discovery, the puzzly-nature of astronomical investigation, and the competition inherent in the scientific process.

Great game and companion app but..
My wife and I thoroughly enjoyed this game. We had countless amazing nights with friends as well. However there’s a small (but helpful imo) tweak to the app could be suggested after playing a number of times. The “Research” option only reminds you about the rule to not play it twice back to back. It would be great if there was a way for the app to track it and just not allow a player to play it back to back. When we played with 2 players it was fine, but every once in a while one of us forgot this rule and accidentally did it twice. And I’m not sure if I’m wrong but the app didn’t even remind us not to do it after the first time. I don’t know if it’s technically impossible to do it as my lack of knowledge in app development is limited. Just a suggestion to make this great game app even more helpful. Everything else is just perfect.
