Description

In the not-so-distant future, a catastrophic meteor shower has ravaged the Earth, leaving only a few scattered cities in its wake. As the survivors of this apocalypse struggle to rebuild, they must venture into the treacherous Wastelands in search of precious resources. In Rise of the Wastelands, 1 to 4 players take on the role of leaders of these fledgling factions, each with their own unique abilities and strengths. As they explore the dynamically generated map, they'll establish outposts, recycle materials, and construct buildings and units to aid in their quest for dominance. With a playtime of 90 to 120 minutes, Rise of the Wastelands is a game of strategy and skill, where players must balance their actions carefully to outmaneuver their opponents. The game's normal complexity makes it accessible to fans of board games, and its engaging mechanics, including action points, hexagon grids, and tech trees, ensure that each playthrough is unique and challenging. As players strive to spread their influence and achieve victory, they'll encounter unknown dangers and unexpected opportunities in the Wastelands. Will you emerge as the dominant faction, ruling over the ruins of civilization, or will your opponents outmaneuver you in this gripping game of post-apocalyptic survival?
