A Game of Misdirection and Deduction

Requirements

2-4

Description

Up to 4 Runners battle to the death as they secretly move their Avatars through a map of destructible nodes while trying to locate and destroy their opponents!

NodeRun evolves the classic gameplay of Battleship with a randomized map of destructible terrain and an engaging location deduction mechanic. Randomized Upgrade Pools provide even more strategic options and ensure every game is different.

Using a Location Tracker that only they can see, each Runner secretly plots a path through the map. The Runner places a line of cards in front of them representing the type of nodes they stepped on in their path. Then, players take turns trying to guess their opponents' locations and destroy those nodes. Each time a Runner dies, they choose an upgrade that provides new possibilities for navigating the board or destroying tiles. A game that starts off incredibly simple gradually grows into a high stakes battle of misdirection and deduction!

2-4 players. Game lasts 30-60 minutes for 2-3 players, 45-75 minutes for 4 players.

Optional expansion provides 5 and 6 player support and additional gameplay options.

Notes
