About this game
Build hydroelectric dams, redirect waterways, and generate power across the Alps in this ferociously competitive worker placement game. Every player is racing to capture the same water — blocking opponents' water flow is a core strategy. Barrage is confrontational, complex, and extremely satisfying once mastered.
