Description

In Solstice: Fall of Empire, the decline of the ruling house has created a power vacuum, and rival factions are ready to pounce. As one of these factions, you'll need to navigate a complex web of diplomacy, strategy, and cunning to claim the throne. With a unique card drafting system, you'll build a hand of cards that provide strength, favor, and victory points, all while trying to deny key cards to your opponents. As you play, you'll need to manage uncertainty and make decisions with imperfect information, using your wits to outmaneuver your opponents. With each round, you'll draft new cards, play them face down, and then reveal and resolve them, all in a bid to be the strongest or most favored faction and score victory points. With 2 to 4 players and a playtime of just 20 to 45 minutes, Solstice: Fall of Empire is a fast-paced and thrilling game of strategy and skill.
