Description

Influence is a tactical game where 2 to 6 players compete to gain the most Power by conquering and maintaining control of Castles. The game is easy to learn and can be played in 20 to 60 minutes, making it a great option for a fun and challenging game night. Players use Influence cards to attempt to gain control of Castles, which are dealt face-down on a modular board, and the player with the most Power at the end of six rounds wins. With identical sets of Faction cards and Influence cards, players must strategically leverage their influence to conquer Castles and sabotage their opponents' strongholds. The game features area majority and auction mechanics, adding a layer of depth and complexity to the gameplay. Whether played free-for-all or in teams, Influence is a game of strategic maneuvering and tactical decision-making that's sure to keep players engaged and entertained.
