How It Plays
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.
Hand Management
You have a hand of cards and deciding which to play, save, or discard is the core puzzle.
Income
You earn resources automatically each round based on what you've built up — the snowball effect is real.
Market
There's a shared marketplace where prices shift based on what players buy and sell — supply and demand in action.
Modular Board
The board is made of separate pieces arranged differently each game — no two setups are ever quite the same.
Multi-Use Cards
Each card can be used in multiple ways — deciding how to play it is a juicy strategic choice.
Once-Per-Game Abilities
You have a powerful ability you can use just once — choosing the perfect moment to unleash it is super satisfying.
Point to Point Movement
You move between connected locations on the board — the map's layout decides your travel options.
