Part of the Edition Bohrtürme (author competitionwww.spielmaterial.de) / Crowdfunding project on Kickstarter

Welcome to the USA of the 1950s—the era of supersized cars, rock 'n' roll, and... extraterrestrial activity! To prevent mass panic, the President has ordered all evidence of alien existence to be stored at the secret military base Area 51 in the Nevada desert. However, to safely store the futuristic weapons, incredible tools, and remnants of extraterrestrial life, state-of-the-art storage facilities are needed, which can only accommodate certain artifacts and must be continually expanded.

Area 51 is a card-driven strategy game about safely storing alien artifacts. Players are constantly faced with the dilemma of occupying scarce building space for the so-called habitats while simultaneously expanding these habitats to ultimately have suitable storage space.

Also thegraphic designis an eye-catcher. The box is designed like a file folder, and the game board is a triangle with rounded corners, assembled from several pieces. The theme is dedicated to the secret military base in Nevada.
