About the Game


Experience the Iberian Peninsula in the late Reconquista era through a board game.


Granada, once the hegemony of Al-Andalus, after centuries of Reconquista War, is on the verge of collapse.
Meanwhile, it was also a long time ago that the three Christian kingdoms of Castilla, Aragon, and Portugal fought under the cause of a holy war. The Iberian Peninsula is now in an era of warring states where each country's beneficial relationships are intertwined.

There are two victory conditions. One is to have the most territory at the end of 32 rounds, and the other is to win 3 times of battle in which all 4 countries participate every 10 rounds.

Each country's units have their own characteristics. Among these, noble class units can only be acquired by its own country, while militia and men at arms can be acquired by other countries as well.
Castilla: High defense, overall decent stats
Aragon: High defense, excellent melee troops
Portugal: Excellent ranged ability, weak melee troops
Granada: Granada's units have low overall stats and are heavily reliant on noble cards, but they can be excellent at both melee and ranged.

Game Systems

1. Kingdom phase

This is the strategy phase in the form of a board game. All the player's strategic decisions are made only in this phase. Roll the dice, move, and decide on actions at the destination.

2. Deck building

When you get cards in the Kingdom phase, you can adjust the positions of the cards in the deck. If between the flags there are only cards of the same country, each card gains a beneficial effect.

3. Battle

Units are placed from the rear starting from the left of the deck. Battle is automatic and turn-based, greatly inspired by many tabletop wargames. You should observe the battle to refine your deck or improve your grand strategy.


Multiplayer


Up to 4 players can compete directly via local multiplayer or Remote play.
