Read full descriptionHide full description
Blockade Run brings the beloved classic Barricade (Malefiz) board game to your device with beautiful visuals and clever AI opponents. Race your five pawns from your home row to the golden goal at the top of the board -- but beware of barricades blocking your path and opponents trying to send you home. Roll the dice and move your pawns exactly the right number of spaces in any direction. After each move, strategically relocate a barricade to slow down your rivals. Land on an opponent's pawn to send it back to their home row and gain a crucial advantage. With support for 2-4 players, smart AI opponents, and online multiplayer, Blockade Run is perfect for family game night or quick solo sessions. Plan your moves carefully, use barricades wisely, and be the first to reach the goal!
