Description

Gudnak, which translates to "War" in Orcish, is a tactical card game that's all about strategy and fun. With easy-to-learn rules, it's perfect for players of all skill levels, and its deep tactics will keep you coming back for more. In this game, 2 to 4 players can join in on the action, which takes place on a square grid - the size of the grid depends on the number of players, making each game a unique experience. The goal is simple: build your deck of Heroes and Tactics, and then try to siege your opponent's Stronghold while defending your own. What makes Gudnak really interesting is its symmetrical deckbuilding, where each player has the same number of tactics and fighters with the same power. This means that the game is all about how you use your cards, rather than just having the strongest ones. With a playtime of just 15 to 25 minutes, Gudnak is a fast-paced game that's perfect for a quick session with friends. And with the option to expand your game with new factions and cards, such as the Auroxi and Rotborn expansions, you'll never run out of new challenges and strategies to try. Whether you're a fan of fantasy, fighting, or just card games in general, Gudnak is definitely worth checking out.
