Description
Gears of War: The Board Game is a thrilling cooperative experience for 1 to 4 players, where you'll take on the roles of COG soldiers fighting against the relentless Locust horde. Designed by Corey Konieczka, this game is based on the popular third-person shooter by Epic Games and brings the intense action to your tabletop. With a playtime of 60 to 180 minutes, you'll embark on one of seven randomly constructed missions, working together with your team to complete objectives and take down the enemy. As you navigate the modular board, you'll use a variety of mechanics like area movement, dice rolling, and hand management to outmaneuver and defeat the Locust. With moderate in-game text, you'll need to work together and communicate effectively to gain a tactical advantage and complete your mission. Will you be able to send the Locust horde back to their holes and strike a blow for humanity, or will you succumb to the overwhelming odds? Gather your team and find out in Gears of War: The Board Game.
