BIVOUAC: Real-World Territory Warfare Don't just touch grass; own it! Transform your neighborhood into a tactical battlefield. Bivouac is an AR strategy game where physical movement meets deck-building depth—no couch required. YOUR PARK IS THE BATTLEFIELD Drop forts around you. Extend supply lines by moving through real space. Build outposts and artillery to dominate territory. Every meter you walk strengthens your position—or exposes your weakness. SUPPLY LINES = VICTORY Territory isn't about buildings—it's about networks. Connect structures to create supply lines that score points and sustain your forces. But beware: destroy an enemy's fort and watch their entire chain collapse in 30 seconds of cascading destruction.

FREE TO DOMINATE Standard game comes free for everyone. Subscriptions unlock additional game modes and features for you and your opponent! STRATEGY THAT MOVES YOU Whether you're a board game tactician or mobile gaming enthusiast, Bivouac delivers something different: competitive strategy that gets you off the couch and into the world.

About

Rogue's Hand

Read full description

Rogue's Hand is a compact solo card crawler built around a standard deck and difficult tactical choices. Enter rooms of four cards. Defeat monsters, equip weapons, drink potions, and decide when to flee. Resolve three cards from each room; the final card carries forward with added Momentum. Choose from four distinct classes: • Warrior — bypass a weapon restriction when it matters most. • Mage — transmute potions into weapons or weapons into healing. • Cleric — exorcise a dangerous monster and replace it with a new card. • Rogue — make a tactical retreat after engaging part of a room. Plan around weapon degradation, limited healing, class abilities, and an ever-shrinking deck. Clear every card to win. Reach zero health and the run ends. Features: • Four playable classes • Fast, turn-based solo runs • Player statistics with overall and per-class results • Contextual tutorial tips, replayable from How to Play • No advertisements • No in-app purchases • Playable offline • Light and Dark Mode • VoiceOver support Statistics track completed runs, victories, win rate, best scores, winning streaks and your most-played class. Earlier runs are not reconstructed. One deck. Four classes. Every card is a decision.
