Watch “Radlands | Shelfside Review,” a board game review for Radlands from Shelfside on BoardGameVideo.
Description provided by Shelfside on YouTube:
Radlands is a lane-based 2 player card game that takes 20-40 minutes per game! There's no collectables like a TCG, it's more like an LCG where you buy all the cards at once! Each player draws their hand of cards from a shared deck, and spends water (mana) every turn to play cards and activate abilities. The victory condition is to destroy all of the opponent's camps, each with their own unique effects and strategies to play around! Radlands streamlines the dueling card game experience incredibly well with simple mechanics and great depth from low complexity. However, how well does the gameplay manage randomness and balance?

About Radlands, from BoardGameGeek:
Radlands is a competitive, dueling card game about identifying fiercely powerful card synergies.
Act as the leader of your post apocalyptic group of survivors in a tooth-and-nail fight to protect your three camps from a vicious rival tribe. If all of them are destroyed, you lose the game.
The main resource in the game is water. You will spend it to play people and events, and to use the abilities of cards you already have on the table. People protect your camps and provide useful abilities, while events are powerful effects that take time to pay off.
Both players draw cards from the same deck. All cards can either be played to the table or discarded for quick “junk” effects. To win, you will need to manage your cards and water wisely.
