Epic, tense, semi-cooperative.
About this game
Defend China's northern border against Mongol invasion in this asymmetric worker-placement epic. The Great Wall is semi-cooperative: everyone fights the horde together, but only one player wins. Deploy soldiers, build wall sections, gather resources, and navigate the tension between collective survival and personal glory.
