Carnyx

A slight departure from my usual Unity projects.  This one is actually a board game I designed!

Carnyx is a 2-player deep strategy game of elimination that is designed to be easy to learn but difficult to master.  

Call for reinforcements by capturing the central square and take prisoners by landing on them.
Win by removing all of your opponents pieces from the board.

Taking Chess and Draughts as inspiration, I wanted to make a game that felt like it had existed for centuries.  I've used a simple wooden board and ancient Roman and Gallic coins (held in cloth bags) to help reinforce those themes.
I also incorporated a simple (and optional) gambling mechanic, which really adds another layer of depth to the entire playing experience.  

The game is currently in the process of alpha playtesting.  If you would like to take part, please contact me.

You can find the complete rules here.
