Description

In the world of Strife: Legacy of the Eternals, conflict is eternal and you are one of the immortals forever waging war from the shadows. As a two-player strategy card game, Strife is all about mastering the unique combo-creating gameplay of your champions and outmaneuvering your opponent. With the same hand of ten champions, players simultaneously play them to fight over key locations throughout Aerim, worth varying victory points. Each champion has a battle ability and a legacy ability that can be used only while on top of the legacy pile, creating an intricate latticework of strategy. The Fatestone tie-breaking system adds an extra layer of complexity, where the player holding the Fatestone die loses all ties, but can pass it to their opponent to claim a victory, raising the value of the Fatestone. With easy-to-learn rules and a playtime of 60 minutes, Strife is a game of strategic depth and excitement, where the true challenge lies in outmaneuvering your opponent to emerge victorious.
