About


Barrage is a turn-based, strategic worker placement game: Engineers are the key elements of your game plan. Send Engineers to carry out different Actions, such as gathering new Machinery, managing water, building structures, and produce energy, but be careful: Action spaces are limited and shared among all players, so timing is crucial to avoid opponents stealing your next move.
The game unfolds in turns; each turn, players will be able to pick just one Action at a time. Engineers are few, and the more powerful an Action, the more Engineers it needs, so managing your workers carefully is the fundamental aspect of every gameplay.

Every corporation is unique in its own, and unlocks different rewards as the game progresses. Plus, every CEO has a special passive power that can be unlocked to maximize energy production, profits, or resource management.
But that’s not all: CEOs are assisted by Executive Officers, useful helpers which heavily impacts the gameplay rules and results in very different play styles. Experiment with different CEOs and XOs to find the ones that fits you best, or draft them at the beginning of the game for more unpredictability.

Objectives, Energy Contracts, and Technologies are randomly chosen from all available possibilities, ensuring a unique experience every time you play. This element of randomness fosters replayability, making each game a new challenge to overcome and forcing you to adapt your planning and strategy.

Dive into the uchronic world of Barrage, redesigned for a better gaming experience on PC, without waiving the beautiful visual language of the board game. Actions, resources, and the captivating visual elements of the board game have been preserved to charm experienced players and new ones alike.

Whether you want to challenge players worldwide or enjoy a solo game, you won’t be disappointed. The online mode allows you to compete against players from around the world. If you prefer a more personal experience instead, the offline mode lets you enjoy the game at your own pace, customizing factions, XOs, and other options.

Reviews
The digital version of Barrage is a faithful take on the board game. Updates have rolled out smoothly with clear communication from the developer. The interface is straightforward, and the tutorial clearly explains the core actions. A major upside of the digital version is that it removes any doubt about whether you’re playing correctly, because it enforces the rules automatically. Whether you’re new to Barrage or already own the physical game and want a new way to play with friends or AI opponents, I recommend this product.
The implementation is nice, although I would suggest the possibility of seeing the setup of the tabletop before choosing the combination of faction and officer. The AI is very simple and easily beatable. It always begins picking Elevation 1 (which is good play) and building conduits and powerplants in the common bases (which, with certain exceptions, is suboptimal play, IMO). All in all, it is a good app for the tabletop game. Recommended.

主要是游戏本身很好玩,改编的比较差
Great experience getting to play it with bots, which is letting me test out strategies for when I play against friends. Looking forward to expansions and maybe difficulty?
Есть коробка. Но эл. версия (на данный момент 16,07,25 весьма хороша. По сравнению с физ. версией (+) Не надо расскладывать и искать партию для игры, не плохие боты и есть онлайн, авто подсчет и авто правила, музыка, виз.эффекты. (-) нет физ контакта с друзьями.
