The Drake Objective

MISSION BACKGROUND:

The search for peaceful communication with an extra-terrestrial intelligence continues and has never been more dangerous. This search can ask a high price for any who seek it and has become known as: The Drake Objective

This game ran 19-21 July 2024. There are a selection of photos available.
En-route to investigate another possible Goodman Protocol situation on KOI-2626 (Sevodnya Colony) where there was a distinct possibility of conflict with the MegaCorporation Weyland-Yutani, the USS Costaguanero was unexpectedly knocked off course and suffered catastrophic damage.

Ejected in their Emergency Escape Vehicle onto the surface of an unknown planet the crew encountered survivors of a similar accident: the crew of the Monchino.

It soon became clear they had more than just this in common, but with all communications offline and hostile lifeforms threatening them at every turn the crew needed to find a solution all while continuing to work on The Drake Objective.

Following a player and crew feedback survey we have published a summary and retrospective on the game.
