How It Plays

Action Points

You get a limited number of action points each turn and choose how to spend them — prioritizing is everything.

Area Majority / Influence

You're competing to have the most presence in key areas on the board — think of it like a friendly turf war.

Point to Point Movement

You move between connected locations on the board — the map's layout decides your travel options.

Team-Based Game

Players split into teams and work together to outplay the other side — teamwork makes the dream work!

Variable Player Powers

Each player has unique abilities that make their experience different — finding the best way to use yours is half the fun.
