It has been a nailbiting few months since The Crew and My City were nominated by the Spiel des Jahres Jury.
Today Kosmos Games UK are honoured to announce that The Crew – Quest for Planet 9 has won the coveted Kennerspiel des Jahres award 2020.
The Crew has been garnering rave reviews since its debut at Essen 2019. Initially a sleeper hit, word of the innovative co-operative trick taking game spread throughout the gaming world and led to Kosmos UK selling out of the English Language version in less than 9 days. Since being reprinted and arriving back in the UK in Mid April it has sold over 8.5 thousand in the UK alone!
But don’t just take our word for it….

The game involves completing 50 different missions as you travel across the solar system, only succeeding if you work together as a team.
To master the challenges and achieve your mission, communication will be essential — but in space, things can be more challenging than expected …
In order to meet demand, 5 free bonus missions – The Deimos Adventure, were devised and released on social media in a joint marketing campaign with Kosmos-Verlag and Thames and Kosmos US. The game is also under development as a digital entity and will be released in time for UK Games Expo.
The Crew is available to buy from all good local game shops or direct from our website www.thamesandkosmos.co.uk
