After just eight weeks of development, I've created a print and play version of a board game inspired heavily by the game mechanics used in Ingress.  Ingress: The Relic has researchers working to unlock the power of exotic matter in an ancient relic.  

In simple terms, the game plays a lot like the classic game Go but introduces action cards and resonators to alter the scoring and add more strategic elements to the game.

With an Ingress lore theme which will someday include six researchers instead of the arbitrary symbols that currently appear on portal tiles and score markers, I thought more than just me and a few friends might enjoy checking out the game.

Playtesting currently just involves printing out the four page Print and Play Edition, a bit of cutting for the portal tiles, resonator tokens and score/round markers and making action decks from a deck of playing cards.

This is completely a fan work and is not a licensed Ingress item.  There is no cost outside of printing the materials to those that choose to play.

Please send me feedback if you play the game.  Your feedback will definitely be used to continue enhancing from this early playtest version.
