Paradise: A Wastepunk Boardgame

Paradise – A Wastepunk Boardgame is a skirmish game set in a post-apocalyptic world. With stunning artwork and deep tactical gameplay, Paradise blends wasteland survival with a unique "wastepunk" aesthetic in a brutal fight for dominance. Players lead rival factions fighting for control over a dying land. Each faction consists of four main characters (one of whom is the leader) and two henchmen. The game is played in rounds, where each player alternates turns, activating one miniature each. Miniatures can move on the map using some range tools to check distances. Fights are based on dice rolls, and characters are not eliminated; they don’t die. They get KOed instead. There is also a deck of cards that helps players in their strategies and fights. Those cards are dealt and drafted at the beginning of the game. There are some objectives in each scenario, which are represented by points of interest on the map. There are some terrain features that can be used to players’ own advantage. Players earn points from controlling those points of interest and knocking out the opponent’s characters. The first player to get to a specific number of victory points (according to the scenario) is the winner. —description from the publisher
