About the Game

Anomaly Grid is a turn-based strategy puzzle game built around numerical pressure, color control, and tactical decisions.

Every unit has a value. Every tile matters. To expand, you must capture weaker tiles, defeat enemy units, merge your own forces, and spend score wisely on upgrades and abilities. The board keeps growing stronger over time, forcing you to plan ahead instead of simply reacting.

Control colors to unlock powerful score milestones, push deeper into enemy territory to improve your long-term economy, and decide when to invest in upgrades or deploy abilities that can shift the entire match.

Abilities allow you to boost captures, grow units over time, drain enemy color groups, pressure all enemy units, or instantly strengthen a key unit. Each choice changes the rhythm of the board.

The enemy is not passive. It upgrades, captures, merges, uses abilities, and adapts through different difficulty levels and AI behavior settings. Optional mutators can dramatically change the rules of a match, creating more aggressive, unstable, or chaotic games.

Key Features:

- Turn-based tactical grid gameplay

- Score-based economy and upgrades

- Color control and milestone bonuses

- Unit capturing, merging, and long-term growth

- Five distinct ability types

- Multiple game modes and difficulty levels

- Optional mutators that alter the match rules

- Clear end-screen statistics showing score, captures, upgrades, abilities, and outcome reason

- A focused demo version built around the core 5v5 experience

Anomaly Grid is designed for players who enjoy strategic planning, puzzle-like positioning, resource management, and watching small numerical decisions grow into massive consequences.
