Super Fun

Awesome strategy game, like old school Iron Dragon. Plays online with friends really well. And it’s free with no subscriptions, love that

Thoughtfully designed and seriously fun!

Super fun and thoughtfully designed game! I used to play a similar board game so having this experience on my phone makes it super easy to take my turn whenever it’s convenient for me. You can really tell the design was intentional- the UI is clean and intuitive. It’s great with two players but really shines with three or more when things get more dynamic and strategic. Highly recommend giving it a try- I genuinely hope this designer releases more games in the future
