The fifth part of a series of unusual strategies in which we make decisions by moving left or right of the cards displayed on the screen. In Reigns: Beyond we become the leader of an indie rock band, which we manage during intergalactic journeys.
Reigns: Beyond is the fifth part of a series of unusual strategies enriched with elements of puzzle games, adventure games and roguelikes, launched in 2016. Like earlier productions under this brand, this game was developed by an independent studio, Nerial.
Unlike its predecessors, Reigns: Beyond takes us on a journey into the science fiction universe. Moreover, this time we are not sitting on the royal throne, but playing the leaders of an indie rock band, dreaming of an intergalactic career. For this purpose the band travels from planet to planet, playing concert after concert and recruiting new . We, on the other hand, must make decisions which, above all, will keep both us and our colleagues alive, and only then will they provide us with wealth and fame.
The gameplay in Reigns: Beyond is similar to what we were familiar with earlier games under this sign. During the game, we manage the resources of our spaceship and its crew, take part in interstellar battles, unlock Galactic guitars to make our band more attractive, and talk to more than 60 characters, including potential new of our team as well as other personnel, headed by our manager - Lord Shark - or tax collectors. All this is presented in the form of more than a 1,400 cards, which we move left or right, making negative or positive choices in individual cases. We must be careful here, because it is impossible to predict the consequences of all our decisions, which are often tragic.
The graphic design of Reigns: Beyond remains the same as in previous editions of the series, once again kept in a characteristic, quite minimalist style. The game is accompanied by a soundtrack by Sam Webster.

Game Ratings for Reigns: Beyond Video Game.
Softpedia: 8 / 10 by Cosmin Vasile
Reigns: Beyond is an impressive achievement and I don’t really want to think how long it would take a player to see all the more than 1,400 featured cards. The structure makes it easy to get a full-blown weird adventure in under 10 minutes. Stop after death, consider your choices, do something else, and return for another dose after a few hours.
Nindie Spotlight: 8.3 / 10 by Justin Nation
A somewhat different and certainly more bizarre version of the Reigns formula awaits in the stars
Console Creatures: by David Pietrangelo
Reigns: Beyond brings together a wonderfully wacky cast of characters and a space adventure ready to rock! The simplified mechanics leave space for a story and universe that's a blast to explore.
