Gearworks
Coming early 2018
Two steps forward, one step back. It seems your machines never work the way they are supposed to, or for very long, before they break down. The workshop owner has given you one more chance to prove your worth.
Gearworks is a steampunk strategy card game featuring card placement, hand management, and a twist on area control. Strategically position your gears to fix a mysterious clock in the corner of the workshop to earn the owner's favor over your rival machinists. Players score points each round by being the last player to fix various parts of the broken clock and by achieving hidden goals.
Will your opponents sabotage your efforts, or will you perfectly align your gears to earn bonus sparks?
