Welcome to HeroTec, an engineering firm that builds custom equipment for superheroes. You and your lab-mates will sift through a common stockpile of resources and plans, building items in your workshops. Your benefactor requires four types of items: a gadget, a costume, a vehicle, and a lair. Players will race to be the first to complete the job, while also trying to build the best tech. In HeroTec you must outfit your superhero client by first drafting cards (consisting of gadgets, costumes, vehicles, and lairs) from the Stockpile and placing them directly into your Workshop. There you will use the card for its resources (Circuits, Tools and Reactors), trying to build items for your Showroom. Released in the January 2018 Board Game of the Month Club $20+ package.
