Get ready to dive into an epic clash where strategy and cunning are your best weapons! In Mythological War, you take command of armies seeking control of magical portals in an intense struggle for influence and territory. The game flows through three main phases that keep everyone engaged: first, the Portal Phase (except in the first round), where a new portal is opened and its effects shift the course of the match. Then comes the Planning Phase, that tense moment where everyone secretly places order tokens in each territory where they have troops. This is where the 'mind game' happens: you must predict your opponent's moves while hiding your own intentions.

In the Action Phase, the truth is revealed. Tokens are flipped, and new troop summons are resolved, respecting the map's supply limits. Battles are resolved by comparing the combat power of the troops—soldiers, knights, and cannons (remember that cannons are devastating in attack but useless in defense)—added to token modifiers and the strength of your cards. To complicate (or help) things, neighboring territories can support the battle, making strategic positioning fundamental. Victory goes to the player who manages to control 6 portal areas, or to whoever has the most portals after 10 turns. If you enjoy games like Game of Thrones, you'll notice similarities in the area control dynamics, but here naval mobility is replaced by mystical portals and card-based combat modifiers, bringing a fresh flavor to the war. It's a game of logical reasoning, unstable alliances, and fierce disputes for space, perfect for those who love seeing their plan unfold while the opponent tries to figure out what you're plotting.
