Description
Pocket Battles: Elves vs. Orcs is a quick and portable war game that's perfect for when you're short on time and space. In just 20 minutes, you can dive into a fantasy battle between two players, using easy-to-learn rules and a simple yet strategic gameplay mechanic. The game features dice rolling and secret unit deployment, adding a layer of excitement and unpredictability to each battle. As the elves and orcs clash, you'll need to make tactical decisions about which units to deploy and when to attack. With the goal of eliminating at least half of your opponent's army, you'll need to use your units' special traits and abilities to outmaneuver your opponent. The game's compact design and short playtime make it an ideal choice for a quick gaming fix, and its compatibility with other games in the Pocket Battles series means you can mix and match armies for endless replayability.
