About the game
What you do in a play session
In this starter box, you get two complete armies: the Humans of Cimeria and the Elementals. The system is designed to be a tactical fighting game without the need to collect hundreds of boosters (it's not a TCG, folks!). Each deck includes 30 unit cards, 10 relic cards, and 8 evolution cards, allowing you to explore unique synergies right out of the box. The conflict resolution mechanic is smart, requiring you to manage your hand carefully, as turn order is dictated by your units' stats. This means you need to think ahead, anticipating what your opponent will do and reacting at the right moment.
It's an experience that balances strategic depth with table-readiness. If you like dark fantasy games where battlefield positioning is crucial and resource management is the heart of the match, Pariah will hook you. It's perfect for those who want a quick session that still demands brainpower and planning. Prepare your cards, choose your side, and see if you can maintain order or if you will embrace the chaos consuming the world of Pariah.
