Overboss: Duel

Overboss: Duel is a tile-laying game for two players. You are both Boss Monsters and build a single map together. Each turn, you choose a terrain tile and a monster token. You place them anywhere you like, even on your opponent's side.

At the end, each player only scores points for their own half of the board. So a tile you place can give you points, but it can also get in the way of your opponent. The game takes place in the pixel-art world of Boss Monster.

Next to the board is a market with pairs of a tile and a token. Taking turns, you choose one pair and place it on the board. You may:

• Choose: you take a pair from the market. The rest remain for your opponent.
• Place: you place the tile and the token on the board, on your side or on the other player's side.
• Use effects: many tiles do something as soon as you place them, such as moving tiles or tokens or summoning heroes.

Example: you place a city on your opponent's side. A hero appears, and that hero removes one of the opponent's tokens from the board.

When the board is full, you count the points on your own half. The player with the most points wins.

• Helping and hindering at the same time Every tile can improve your position or disrupt the other player's plans. Sometimes you do both.
• The board changes Tile effects cause tiles and tokens to move around the board. A spot that looked bad can turn out well later.
• Every boss is different Your Boss card gives you a unique power and an extra way to score points.
