About Tau Ceti Tours

Marathon is a brilliant game, but it's hard to get into. New players often say it's hard to understand, and meeting someone who knows how to play makes a huge difference. We want to bring in new players, show them how great the game is, and keep them playing for longer.

So we treat it like a holiday. Experienced players become tour guides, and new players are the tourists they show around Tau Ceti.

How it works

  • Tourists find a guide by map, task, Shell, weapon type, region, device or language, then ask for a tour through our Discord.
  • Tour Guides are experienced players who volunteer. We vet every guide and confirm who they are before they appear here.
  • Tours are always free. Never pay a guide, and never share your account.
  • A guide is never guaranteed. Guides are volunteers, and we're here to help you find one.

Arriving soon

  • Passport stamps: after a tour, your guide stamps your passport and you confirm it with one click. You can earn one stamp a day.
  • Runners: three stamps makes you a Runner. Runners can post in #postcards, suggest Streamers of the Week and take part in Guide of the Month.
  • Guide of the Month: Runners, Tour Guides and Wardens nominate and vote each month, and the winner gets announced on the 1st.
  • Group Tours: scheduled events led by our guides.
