In Dragon Overload, you must outmaneuver your rival to control five unique landscapes. Each territory is tied to a specific dragon suit with power levels from 1 to 9. With only three slots available per player and landscape, every decision is high-stakes. Each time you deploy a dragon, you are forced to gift a card from the breeding zone to your opponent. While you can use deception by playing a limited number of cards face down, the ultimate challenge is maintaining order. If your dragons' power is so overwhelming that it doubles your opponent's, they will descend into a chaotic "overload", costing you the very land you sought to conquer. After only 15 minutes, the player who claims the most territories (or all of them), wins. Dragon Overload is manufactured from FSC certified materials. -description from the publisher
