How it plays

Turn-based tactics, built to be played async.

Chess-sized decisions that fit a quiet minute, with the whole board readable at a glance.

Telegraphed shots

Ranged attacks land a turn late.

A ranger marks a tile now and hits it at the start of its next turn. Whoever stands there takes it — including your own pieces. Dodge, brace, step an ally in the way, or bait a shot onto its own side. Shove the ranger and the shot is cancelled.

Action points

Every action costs one. Repeats cost more.

Move, attack, deploy, heal, push, brace, guard — one point each. The same piece acting twice pays two, then three. Opening turns ramp up in order: that's the whole handicap for moving first.

Async · 48-hour clock

Play when you have a minute.

Take your turn, hand it over, get a notification when it comes back. Run out the 48-hour clock and it's a loss, so no game is left hanging. Undo freely until you tap End Turn.

Two match types

All kings fall. Choose how the match is decided.

Bring down the enemy Leader and you win on the spot. Let your king fall and you lose.

Control

Hold the center line.

End your turn holding more middle-row tiles than your opponent to score a point. Seven wins. It's judged after the second player's turn, so there's always an answer.
