Splinterfold is a tabletop wargame where you command a force of soldiers, tanks, or alien constructs, struggling to make sense of a world as consciously hostile as your enemies.

The game is designed to be easy to learn and hard to master. It's a hybrid between traditional tabletop wargames and deck building where players take turns to play a card, which might mean deploying soldiers and tanks, moving, shooting, charging, or using abilities such as airstrikes and shield domes.

It is cheap on price, but not on gameplay. Over time we'll be adding persistent universe campaigns and storylines, more units, solo play rules and in-depth lore to keep you up at night.
