About Dark Frontier
Dark Frontier is a space battle game with more than 200 different cards, where brave captains face each other for conquering the Galaxy. The development team of Dark Frontier has been working for more than three years to achieve an unique card game, in which you will find: - The Campaign Manual. A 252 pages book with the history of Dark Frontier, the backstory of our six factions, three thousand years of human history, a poster of the galaxy, and three complete ways for playing Dark Frontier. All this content can be downloaded for free on PDF! - Three playing modes for competitive and casual players: Through Campaign Mode you will experience the history of Dark Frontier in more than thirty replayable scenarios, both solo or versus another player. In Duel Mode , normal or narrative, you will confront your friends or tournament enemies to obtain victory through conquest or destruction of a planet. In Multiplayer Mode, you will enjoy frenzied games or political discussions for three players or more. This mode can also be played against the AI as a team. - Six different victory or defeat conditions. Colonize the galaxy, gather crystals, destroy either enemy’s spaceship or planet, or make your opponents abandon their mission. - A 140 pages graphic novel, tying the history of this first Dark Frontier set with the upcoming mini set, whose development is already finished and will be released for free during the next campaign. The boxset content is designed to be halfway between a TCG and a LCG: is a collectible game without any random boosters. Boxsets contain all game cards, thus eliminating chance and extra costs for the player. Choose your spaceship, select your mission, build your deck and plan your strategy to win the game!!
