Covert

Get ready to dive into the world of espionage with Covert, a game that puts you in the shoes of a secret agent during the Cold War. Your mission? Crack codes, gather vital intel, and complete high-risk objectives before your rivals do. To achieve this, you'll command a network of spies and need sharp tactics and strategic thinking.

Each round is a whirlwind of action! You'll roll your dice, which represent your agents in the field, and then strategically place them on various action spaces. Want to move your agents across the map? Acquire new equipment? Or perhaps complete a mission that could lead you to victory? It all depends on how you use your dice. The catch is that action spaces require you to place dice numerically adjacent to already placed dice. This means a misstep can open opportunities for opponents to thwart your plans, but a good agent always has a backup, right? And in Covert, there's always a way around obstacles.

The game shines by cleverly blending mechanics like worker placement (with dice!), hand management, and set collection. You need to think not only about the current mission but also about future ones, all while keeping an eye on what other agents are up to. Covert's beauty lies in the freedom it offers to combine your agent's unique abilities with card combos, allowing you to craft personalized strategies to overcome challenges and emerge victorious. It's a tense, tactical game that rewards careful planning. Utilize your assets, make your move, and don't let anyone stand in your way!
