Campaign / Battle Card Driven

Special cards trigger events and drive the action forward — each card played can shift the whole narrative.

Card Play Conflict Resolution

Conflicts are resolved by playing cards instead of rolling dice — it puts the outcome more in your hands.

Cooperative Game

Everyone works together against the game itself — you win or lose as a team, so get ready to strategize together!

Grid Movement

Pieces move on a grid of squares — straightforward movement that still leaves room for deep tactical thinking.

Hand Management

You have a hand of cards and deciding which to play, save, or discard is the core puzzle.

Hexagon Grid

The board uses hexagons instead of squares — this gives you more directions to move and think about.

Simultaneous Action Selection

Everyone chooses their action at the same time and reveals together — no waiting around, and plenty of surprises.
