CL4SH: Elemental Duel

2026

2 - 6 players
15 - 30 min

From BoardGameGeek

CL4SH: Elemental Duel is a fast-paced card game for 2-6 players where strategy meets chaos. Players use elemental cards-Fire, Water, Air, and Earth-to outplay opponents and be the first to empty their hand. Special action cards create dynamic twists, making every round competitive, unpredictable, and highly replayable. Each turn, players must play a card that defeats the previously played element using the game's elemental dominance system. If they can't, they must draw a card-bringing them further from victory. The goal is simple: be the first to empty your hand. What makes CL4SH unique is its layered interaction. Special action cards allow players to: Challenge opponents in head-to-head duels Reverse the flow of the game Force opponents to draw cards Disrupt momentum at critical moments These effects create constant tension, strategy, and unpredictable swings. How Gameplay Flows Players are dealt a starting hand A card is flipped to begin the play pile On your turn: Play a card that beats the current element, OR Draw a card if you cannot play Special cards can override normal play and shift control Winning the Game The first player to successfully play all of their cards wins the round. -description from the designer
