BSoD is a collectible card game. It has turn-based strategy mechanics with some real-time action features. You are represented as a field commander of one of few Factions struggling for the vital strategic locations. To accomplish your mission you must call for the reinforcements and lead them into battle. Here are the main points of game rules and mechanics. 1. The game goes as a sequence of rounds. A round consists of two phases: Tactics Phase and Action Phase. During Tactics Phase both players deploy reinforcements to the battlefield paying for them kind of resource called Command Points. Players do that simultaneously and secretly from each other. After preparations done Action Phase begins where all action takes place. 2. One of the most important game parameters is Initiative. Each card has its own Initiative number. During Action Phase each card becomes active one after another in the Initiative order. The higher card’s Initiative is the earlier it will become active. The card can realize its abilities only when it is active once per round (mostly). 3. There are two card types in BSoD: Units and Actions. Units are forces that battle against enemies. Wise unit management is the way to win the game! Actions are one-time usable cards that provide support to your main forces. 4. The basic way to defeat your opponent is to capture strategic location you are battling for. Units under your command will help you with achieving this goal. Each Unit has the Victory Points attribute. That attribute symbolizes area control power and presence on battlefield. When you overwhelm the opponent with your Victory Points you win! Also there may be different winning conditions depending on game mode.
Backgammon True Dice

Backgammon you can check. Every backgammon app says its dice are random. This one lets you prove it. Before your first move, Backgammon True Dice generates a random 32-byte seed and shows you its SHA-256 fingerprint, right there on the board. Every roll of the game is derived from that seed, so the whole sequence is fixed before you make a single decision. When the game ends, the seed is revealed and the app replays every roll in front of you. Copy the seed, the fingerprint and the roll journal, and you can repeat the calculation with any tool you like. The opponent never sees the seed. It receives the board and the roll that has already happened — nothing else. Difficulty changes how deeply it thinks, never what you roll. TWO GAMES ON ONE BOARD • Backgammon — opposing tracks, hitting, the bar, gammons and backgammons • Long nardy — one direction, no hitting, one checker off the head per turn, mars PLAY YOUR WAY • Three opponent levels, from a relaxed game to a genuinely hard one • Two players on one device, passing it back and forth • Take back a whole turn until you confirm it • Legal moves highlighted, so the rules never get in the way SEE THE DICE FOR YOURSELF • The game fingerprint stays visible on the board while you play • Full roll journal, including the rolls that decided who starts • A histogram of all 36 outcomes for you and your opponent, against what fair dice would give • Journals of your last twenty games, so you can check a suspicion days later BUILT TO BE QUIET • Works entirely offline, in airplane mode, on a plane or underground • No account, no sign-in, nothing to set up • Not a single system permission requested — no contacts, no location, no notifications • Nothing is collected: no analytics, no tracking, no networking code at all Backgammon and long nardy are traditional games with centuries of history. This app adds one modern thing to them: dice you do not have to take on trust.
