Darkleaf Gambit — Reignite Your Chessboard’s Magic

Will You Seize the Forest's Light?

Darkleaf Gambit lets you take control of one of six clans, each inviting its own distinct style of play and unique path to victory.

No two units move alike or possess the same abilities, strengths, and weaknesses. Although designed for use in the physical realm (i.e., on your chessboard), the mechanics were seamless when transitioning to the digital (i.e., Tabletopia).

Asymmetry Perfected

Will you hunt a king with the Huldra’s ranged attack or hazard a close confrontation with The Murg?

Push your opponent into the void on the Ferrymen’s wave, or reclaim the Erde’s sacred territories?

Check out the Darkleaf Gambit Kickstarter page for an overview of each clan, detailing its path to victory, mode of attack, and complexity level.

Cutthroat Strategy. Ruthless Twists.

Adapt your strategy as your rival strikes back!

Prepare to ward off a Hexen's vanquishing curse or escape the Wibo's power to control your units.

No Chess Experience Needed

Level the playing field with mechanics that cater to both new players and seasoned strategists.

A roll of the die powers (and limits) every decision.
