Here's an overview of the game's setting and gameplay:
Falling Sky: The Gallic Revolt Against Caesar takes 1 to 4 players into the military actions and complex politics of Roman-occupied but not-yet-conquered Gaul. Caesar and his hard-hitting legions cannot be everywhere and will not triumph without powerful allies among local tribes. But each Gallic confederation has its own agenda and must keep its eyes not only on the Romans but also on Celtic, Belgic, and Germanic rivals. Players recruit forces, rally allies, husband resources for war, and balance dispersed action with the effectiveness and risk of concentrated battle.
Leveraging GMT's popular COIN Series system to integrate historical events with wide-ranging strategic options across the game board, Falling Sky provides accessible and deep historical gaming of war, politics, and diplomacy. A full solitaire system enables solo players to test their skill against an array of game-run factions, each unique. From Britannia to the Rhenus and down to Provincia, armies are on the move. Who shall finally subdue Gaul?
Bullet♥︎ includes eight characters to play and four game modes:
—Battle Royale Mode: 2–4 players can duel in a free-for-all puzzle battle that plays in real-time!
—Boss Battle Mode: 1–4 players can combine forces to survive against a single boss; the game includes eight bosses, one corresponding to each heroine.
—Score Attack Mode: A lone player can play for a high score against increasingly difficult odds.
—Team Battle Mode: Two teams of two players battle it out! The last team standing wins.
• In 2018, Italian publisher Horrible Guild (then known as Horrible Games) released a pair of roll-and-write games from Hjalmar Hach and Lorenzo Silva — Railroad Ink: Deep Blue and Railroad Ink: Blazing Red. In these games, each round one player would roll dice, then everyone would use these dice to create networks of roads and train tracks, trying to create long paths while connecting multiple exits on their individual game boards. (You can watch a more detailed overview here.)
Now Horrible Guild plans to release two new titles in this line — Railroad Ink Challenge: Shining Yellow Edition and Railroad Ink Challenge: Lush Green Edition — with these titles being similar to the earlier releases, but not exactly the same. A Kickstarter campaign for these games will go live in May 2020, but for now you can read the following for an overview:
Railroad Ink Challenge has everything you love from the original Railroad Ink games and a lot more, with an all-new focus on player interaction thanks to in-game goals! Only those who achieve them first get the reward, so you have to keep an eye on what your opponents are doing and try to complete the goals before they do! A different set of goals is available each time, so no two games will be the same!
But wait, there's more! Draw unprecedented, mind-bending route configurations thanks to the new dice! Connect special structures to your network to trigger new effects: factories allow you to duplicate a die, villages give bonus points if they are close to a station, universities unlock extra special routes — use these effects wisely and you'll score big!
Railroad Ink Challenge comes in two versions, each one including one expansion with an additional dice set that adds new special rules to your games. Use oases to protect your cacti from the arid desert climate in the Shining Yellow Edition, and create placid forest landscapes and build into a beautiful arboreal paradise with the Lush Green Edition.
