About

Eclipse ist ein taktisches Strategiespiel: Licht gegen Schatten, Brett gegen Brett, Plan gegen Plan. Zwei Mächte ringen um fünf Machtpunkte in der Mitte des Feldes. Wer sie hält, gewinnt – doch der Weg dahin entscheidet sich im Duell. Triffst du auf eine gegnerische Figur, planst du den Zweikampf in Ruhe: Sturm schlägt Finte, Finte schlägt Konter, Konter schlägt Sturm. Kein Reaktionsstress, nur deine Entscheidung. Energie ist Identität. Jede Figur nutzt gesammelte Energie anders – der Drache wird gefährlicher, der Golem zur Festung, der Greif schneller. Helle Felder stärken das Licht, dunkle den Schatten. Stelle dich klug auf, und das Brett kämpft für dich. Schmiede deine eigene Legion. Aus jedem Sieg gewinnst du Glut. In der Schmiede formst du daraus mythische Champions, meisterst deine Figuren und füllst deine Sammlung. Drei Wege zu spielen: • Gegen die KI in fünf Stufen – vom Lehrling bis zum Großmeister • Lokal über zwei iPhones im selben Netzwerk • Online live gegen Freunde und fremde Gegner über Game Center Fair gebaut: keine Energie-Timer, keine Lootboxen, kein Pay-to-Win. Nur Taktik, Sammlung und Können. Optimiert für iPhone und iPad.
