Description

Trench is an abstract strategy game that drops you into the midst of World War I's infamous trench wars, but with a twist. The game takes place on a unique diamond-shaped 8x8 grid board, where each player sets up their army on opposing sides of the trench that divides the board. As tensions rise, players must navigate the strategic potential of the trench to outmaneuver their opponent and capture valuable pieces. With a playtime of just 45 minutes, Trench is a quick and intense battle of wits that's easy to learn, even for those familiar with board games. The game's grid movement and square grid mechanics make for a challenging and immersive experience, as players must work together with their pieces, from Soldiers to the General, to occupy the trench, invade enemy territory, and emerge victorious. With normal complexity rules, Trench is accessible to board game enthusiasts, and its abstract strategy category ensures that each game is a fresh and exciting challenge. Designed by Rui Alípio Monteiro and published in 2013, Trench is a base game that's perfect for two players looking for a fun and strategic competition. The goal is simple: be the army that survives after two battles, and you'll be declared the winner.
