Our take on CITY WARS: TOKYO REIGN
Its defining structure is the Battle Track: attacks are placed first, then resolved during a separate Combat Phase where faction powers, support effects, and card modifiers take effect.
What is CITY WARS: TOKYO REIGN?
Choose a faction, assemble a combat case, and battle through a futuristic city controlled by rival groups.
Fights combine turn-based card play with a track-based battlefield, where attacks are placed and then resolved during a separate Combat Phase. The single-player District Run mode uses a roguelike structure: collect cards, make decisions, and fight across five procedurally generated districts, including the Shadow District. Customisation comes from more than 140 cards in five categories, 20 guns with stat modifiers, and more than 25 charms that alter battles. Utility cards provide consumable effects, while another card type can create persistent effects. An online multiplayer mode called District War is listed as coming soon.
