Capybattle

Capybattle

2025·Domenico Stellato, Francesco Ubbiali

2 players
10 - 30 min
Medium weight: Teach it in one sitting

From BoardGameGeek

Back in medieval times, Capybaras discovered "Match 4" and immediately knew they could do better. After tireless research and scientific experiments, they had finally made it - MATCH 5! In CapyBattle, the goal is to dominate five quarters in a row alongside your trusty Capybara knights or fortified allied structures. The core of this two-player game lies in the 10 randomly placed actions. During each turn, the capybara monarchs, pivotal pieces, move from capybara to capybara to activate corresponding actions aligned with the column and row of each capybara. These actions can allow you to do things such as moving capybaras, baiting enemy capybaras, building structures, using secret passages, or simply taking a nap. With new structures, more knights will heed the call of their leaders until the whole Capytal will be flooded with chivalrous rodents and the new Heir to the throne will be finally decided!
