This game combines elements of chess, tactical board games, and card games, retaining the rigor of chess while adding the freedom of tactical games and the fun of card games. In this game, you can choose to duel against AI in vs AI mode, or create a room online to invite opponents to play against you. The current version has 4 factions to choose from. Each player's faction combination and playstyle are unique. You can choose the "Tech Park" faction, which is both aggressive and flexible, or the "Graveyard" faction, which excels at control and attrition, or the straightforward "Jungle" faction, or the "Treasure Vault" faction, which specializes in defensive tactics and coordination. Different units within each faction also have unique characteristics: "Gunner" excels at long-range attacks, "Headless Horseman" specializes in melee combat, "Wolf" has balanced stats, "Demonic Shield" is good at protecting allies, and so on. Different factions, combined with different stronghold skills and mercenaries, can create completely different playstyles.

Game Features:

  • No pay-to-win content. Players do not need to purchase card packs or units, nor do they need to pay to unlock content.

  • Low randomness: The monsters in each faction are fixed. The effects of every attack and skill are deterministic with no randomness. Only the items in the shop are random. Players can see the opponent's faction, energy, cash, and items.

  • Flexibility: Multiple factions are available, and a variety of mercenary units and stronghold skills can be freely combined with factions. The shop offers various items to purchase and use. Monsters can be fused, and items can be crafted.
