How to play
Welcome to Låndskein. Here the forces of Nåture 🌳 will try to fend off Indûstry 🏭 in a battle that will end when the field is full.
Take turns against your AI opponent as you drag and drop tiles from your hand to the field.
The winner is the player with the most influenced tiles at the end.
Tiles are placed as neutral, but every 10 seconds influence spreads from trees (nature) and Factories (industry) to connected tiles.
Tiles can only be put on the field connecting to other tiles. Remember to rotate your tiles to have a better chance of connecting the tiles. It will take 10 seconds to grow influence for both sides and you will receive a new tile in your hand.
Influence will grow to adjacent tiles if the way is not blocked.
Nature (🟩) influence can be blocked by roads and walls.
Industry (◻️) influence can be blocked by rivers and forests.
Neutral (🟫) tiles can only be influenced once and either will turn into nature or industry!
This will only work if you correctly block them: just placing them all vulnerable will not protect your influence!
If your hand is full (max 8 tiles) your opponent will place a Toxic oil tile (⬛️) every 10 seconds. Hurry and put a tile from your hand on the Toxic tile to sacrifice both tiles. Toxic will grow every 10 seconds and will consume every nature tile adjacent if not properly blocked or sacrificed before the timer is done. Toxic will count as Industry so make sure you either block or sacrifice swiftly!
Hint: Play your full hand on the field to get 4 new tiles immediately!
When the field is full, counting of total influence will commence and the game will be over.
For the sake of Låndskein, do not let industry win!
Good luck and thank you for playing!
