Description

Hermetica is a two-player strategy game that's all about outsmarting your opponent on a dynamic hexagonal grid. Each player takes one side and tries to move their adept piece across the board into the opponent's base, using tactical movement and clever combos to get ahead. With three unique elemental pieces at your disposal, each with its own distinct move set, you'll have plenty of options for capturing enemy pieces and vying for board control. The game is full of possibilities, with dynamic terrain and control over which pieces to deploy and when, making each game play out differently. You can lock down strategic choke points, restructure obstacles to shut down your opponent or open new paths, and set up devastating combos to take them by surprise. With playtime ranging from 10 to 45 minutes, Hermetica is a game that's easy to learn but challenging to master, making it a great fit for fans of abstract strategy games.
