📖 About This Game
Moonlight Ascendance – A game of arcane strife is a competitive strategy game wherein you face off with up to four other players, each representing a faction fighting for power over the city in which the game takes place!
Moonlight Ascendance is played in rounds, in which the players take turns to spend their actions, treasures and hard-earned money to forward their cause. A player may win in three different ways, which vary depending on the faction they play as. While most have similar core abilities, their varying powers and goals make for differing and exciting playstyles.
During the game players may collect cards, inspired by mythology and folklore, that appear across the map. These might provide new ways for the players to spend their actions, or they might provide new abilities or boons.
The game can be played in multiple ways depending on the amount of players, and the cards and events make for a new experience every time you play. The simple core functions make the game easy to learn, but hard to master.
