In 1962, the US Air Force launches a series of U-2 reconnaissance flights over Siberia. Learning from the Gary Powers incident, they select a region of the Soviet Union where, according to intelligence reports, less sophisticated radar systems have been deployed. Flying out of South Korea, the U-2s first travel northward over Vladivostok and the the Sikhote-Alin Mountains before looping back west over the Baikal Region.

During one of these flights, pilot Jack MacKenzie experiences an engine flameout and is forced down west of Lake Baikal. He survives the crash, but knows that the Soviets will have detected his plane as it lost altitude. Scrambling out of the cockpit, he grabs his service pistol and races towards the forest. His only chance now is to make it across the border into China before he is caught.

Siberian Manhunt is an asymmetrical hidden movement game where one player takes the role of a Fugitive who has just crashed a U-2 spy plane and is racing across the Siberian landscape towards the border with China. They win the game if they either 1) escape across the border or 2) reach the end of the hidden movement track‒at which point the Soviet government gives up the manhunt. The other player represents the Soviet agents attempting to track the Fugitive down. They win the game if they either 1) capture or 2) kill the Fugitive.

The game is currently being playtested. Comments on gameplay and balance are welcome!
