Description
In the post-apocalyptic world of Gearworld: The Borderlands, scavengers must fight for survival and build a better life by constructing towering skyworks to gain the favor of the World Above. Players take on the role of rival scavenger gangs, gathering resources and using them to strengthen their military might, enhance their transport capabilities, and ultimately build the skyworks that will secure their future. With 2 to 4 players competing for dominance, the game is a thrilling mix of conquest, negotiation, and strategy. Resources can be produced, traded, or taken by force, and players must balance their need to invest in their skyworks with the need to protect their resources from their rivals. As players seize territory, marshal resources, and defend themselves against their opponents, they must also navigate the challenges of transportation and development to emerge victorious and forge a new future from the ruins of the past.
