Description

Waterloo is a two-player game where you'll take on the role of either the French or British army, reliving the epic battle in a game of strategy and skill. With a playtime of 180 minutes, you'll have plenty of time to outmaneuver your opponent and claim victory. The game's action system is clever, allowing you to plan your moves while keeping your opponent guessing, as they know exactly how many actions you have available. As you navigate the battlefield, you'll need to carefully manage your troops and distribute damage throughout your lines, using blue, red, and black cubes to represent the movement of troops back and forth from the front lines. Control of key areas like La Haye Sainte is crucial, and you'll need to use your wits to outflank and outmaneuver your opponent, all while keeping an eye on the clock, as the game ends at 8pm, or the last turn.
