Form dragon Swarms with rivals, expand your Lair, and hoard more gold than anyone else.
Who it's for
Players who enjoy a fantasy theme with low downtime, thanks to a swarm mechanic that keeps everyone engaged even on opponents' turns.
Not for you if…
If you prefer games with sharply defined player boundaries and no shared benefit from opponents' actions, the Swarm mechanic's interconnected turns may feel less clean than you'd like.
Vibe's take
Light and cooperative-competitive at once — because your Wyrmlings fly in mixed Swarms with opponents, you're constantly benefiting from other players' turns, keeping downtime low and turns feeling connected rather than isolated.
8 Dragons has you play a rising dragon soaring across two kingdoms once saved by eight legendary Dragons of old, now guarded by a new generation — including you. Your newly hatched Wyrmlings form Swarms together with other players' Wyrmlings, so visiting a location activates its effect for your whole Swarm at once, meaning you quietly benefit whenever someone else takes their turn too. Between flights, you expand your Lair chamber by chamber, collect artifacts, complete missions, and hoard as much gold as any true dragon should.
