Description

In Sovereign: Fall of Wormwood, you'll take on the role of a leader guiding a far-future civilization on the brink of war. With a unique blend of hand management and variable player powers, this game challenges you to build an empire from the ground up, managing civilians and military units, as well as facilities that reflect your faction's distinct way of life. As one of ten factions, you'll start with a prebuilt deck of 30 cards specific to your ideology, plus 20 Echoes - remnants of the ark that brought humanity to this world. Your goal is to collect ten Echoes, but be warned: they're vulnerable to theft by your opponents, making every move a strategic gamble. With playtime ranging from 30 to 90 minutes, Sovereign: Fall of Wormwood is an immersive experience that's great for 2 to 4 players. The game's normal complexity makes it easy for board game enthusiasts to dive in, and the dynamic hybrid of worker placement and collectible card game elements ensures that no two games are alike. As you navigate the intricacies of empire-building, you'll forge temporary alliances, sabotage your opponents, and make tactical decisions that can make or break your civilization. With over 300 unique cards to explore, Sovereign: Fall of Wormwood offers a thrilling experience that's out of this world - literally.
