Dead End - Card Game - Apocalypse Game

DEAD END is a dark-humored, action-packed solo game of thematic, turn-based survival that plops you in the stinky boots of three-armed anti-hero, Bobby Butcher. Utilize Action Point, Hand Management, and Hero Defense mechanics as you fight off an onslaught of unique, unrelenting enemies trying to sacrifice you to the Nexus. You're far from defenseless, though. You've got your guns... Your wit... And plenty of usefully useless items scattered about the alleyway. Flip a Movement card to determine how many enemies enter play and from which direction(s) they enter. Next, advance any enemy in an “alley” matching the colors on the Movement card, and then add new enemies to the board for those colors as well. Be cautious. There’s a variety of enemy types, most of which will react differently when entering an alley or after being defeated. And mixed amongst them, you’ll find Decoys to use to your advantage, innocent Bystanders to save or sacrifice, and Hazards to… well, be hazardous. Once the Movement card has been completely resolved and all Enemy cards are in play, it’s time to strategically fight them off! So, if we flipped a Movement card with red and blue on it, enemies would enter play at the beginning of the red and blue alleys, as seen in this example. We’d then need to select the most optimal card in our hand to keep the enemies from reaching us in the center. The circled Action card will shoot once down each of the alleys that it’s aiming towards, which will kill both enemies in play. During play, you’ll come across a variety of Items, Special Items, and Voice cards that’ll help you… STAY ALIVE! At times, surviving might even seem easy, but all it takes is one dangerous combination of enemies to turn the tides against you. Point is. Don’t get cocky. Knowing HOW and WHEN to use these cards is absolutely vital to you making it out of this… DEAD END Designed by CuRilla Games
