Barren Expanse (Working Title)

A deckbuilding strategy game inspired by Dominion and Settlers of Catan

The game plays 2 to 5 players, it takes 60 to 90 minutes to play.  Everything needed to try the game is included in the download. 


This game is in its very early prototype stage. Art assets are placeholders, with card art from Dextrous and icons from Kenney’s board game packs. The map, cards, and gameplay are subject to change as the game evolves.


In Barren Expanse, players explore a unique map each game. Collect limited resources to complete four objectives before resources run out.


Simply print and cut out the components for the game grab a meeple and your friends and you are ready to play. There are 2 map versions at the moment, squares and hexagons, I am still testing to see which map version provides the best gameplay and appearance.  There is a survey link at the bottom of the rules for providing feedback.
