Description
Board with Life: The Metagame is a quick and easy-to-learn card game for 2 to 5 players. In just 15 minutes, you'll be vying to have the highest total power in each of the 5 main characters, but with a twist - you only score points equal to the power your opponents control. This means you want to have the highest strength in each character, but only by a slight margin, and in as many characters as you can for maximum points. The game starts with a quick draft, where you develop your own strategy, and then each turn consists of playing a single card, executing its action, and adding to your power. With simple rules and a variety of actions, including eliminating, defending, swapping, and strategizing, this game is all about clever hand management and set collection. Released in 2014 as a free print & play game, Board with Life: The Metagame is a fun and engaging game that's perfect for a quick game night with friends.
