GAME mechanics

• Hand Management: In Dragon Tides, players have a set of cards that represent their abilities, attacks and defenses. The cards in the hand must be used strategically to maximize combat potential and overcome challenges. Efficient hand management is essential to maintain versatility and adapt as the game develops.
• Placement of parts: Players use pieces to represent characters and objectives on the board. The strategic placement of these pieces can define areas of control, block opponents or open up new paths, directly impacting the dynamics of the game.
• Deck building: During the game, players have the opportunity to improve their personal decks by adding more powerful cards. This allows them to customize their style of play and emphasize certain strategies, such as increasing their offense or improving their defense.
• Bags and parts: Dragon Tides uses a mechanic where tokens or pieces are drawn from a bag to determine random events, acquired resources or modifiers that influence the game. This adds an element of surprise and requires quick adaptation to emerging situations.
• Cooperative: Players work together to face challenges and enemies controlled by the game. Cooperation is key to sharing tasks, combining skills and overcoming obstacles that would be impossible individually.
• Team play: Structurally similar to cooperative mechanics, but with teams competing against each other. Each team must coordinate its members in order to achieve specific objectives and overcome the opposing team.
• Movement in Grids: The board is divided into a grid of squares that determines the movement of the characters. Each move is limited by rules that take into account the terrain, the characters' special abilities and strategic positioning.
• Rolling dice: Players' actions, such as attacks or defenses, are resolved by rolling dice, introducing elements of luck and risk. Different faces of the dice can represent successes, failures or special effects, influencing the course of the turns.
• Action Points: Players have a limited number of action points per turn, which can be spent to perform various actions, such as moving, attacking or activating special abilities. Planning action points is crucial to optimizing each turn.
• Bets and bluffs: In certain situations, players can gamble resources or bluff about their true intentions to manipulate opponents and create psychological advantages. This adds a layer of intrigue and uncertainty, requiring careful reading of opponents.
