Description

Walls of Scydonia is a thrilling board game that drops you into a medieval fantasy world where an epic city war is unfolding. As a city leader, your mission is to destroy your opponent's four guild towers, which hold the secrets of their crafts and possibly the key to saving the world from its impending doom. With a mix of physics, building, and shooting skills, combined with strategic thinking, you'll need to outmaneuver your opponent to emerge victorious. You'll start with 24 wall stones and four guild towers, which provide essential support components. As you lose towers, you'll lose these supports, making it even more challenging to defend your city. The game is all about balance - building and rebuilding your walls, shooting dice at your opponent's towers, and managing your action points wisely. You can earn coins to upgrade your towers and acquire strategy cards, which can give you access to powerful super shots or allow you to play dirty tricks on your enemy. With playtime ranging from 30 to 120 minutes, Walls of Scydonia offers a unique and exciting experience that will keep you on the edge of your seat, especially considering its normal complexity and variety of game mechanics, making it a great fit for fans of action, dexterity, and strategy games.
