Our take on Displaced

The group is represented by map tokens, while encounters unfold through dialogue and card-style battles.

What is Displaced?

Lead a group of civilians through a country torn apart by conflict.

Choose five people for the journey, with different strengths in first aid, negotiation, and technology. Travel across an open map and decide where the group goes next. Encounters with other survivors, squads, gangs, and hordes can lead to hiding, attacking, negotiating, or trading; each decision puts the group’s lives at stake. Develop skills that suit the chosen survival approach. The group appears as tokens on the map, while conversations use dialogue and conflicts are shown through card-style battles. The play centers on planning routes, directing the group, and selecting actions as it tries to leave the country.
