Axes and Acres

[h1] Appears to be some sort of board game. I have no idea how to play it though. [/h1]

玩法非常新颖的一款游戏，集建造、策略、掷骰于一体，上手与其说是难不如说是信息量冗杂，需要大概一个小时梳理入脑才能掌握游戏玩法，可以说是这个游戏最好玩的一个小时。这游戏致命的缺点就是要素过少，内核很空，唯一延长游戏寿命的方法就是逐步缩短过关步数，仅此而已，重复度极高。所以简而言之就是值得一玩，不值得一直玩。

This is a lightweight strategy game. It's not for building up a town; it's for completing objectives in a set number of turns. Despite this limitation, it is a fun entry to its specific niche. The main drawback: There's no difficulty adjuster. If you win at a level, it increases the difficulty. If you loose twice in a row, it decreases. There's no sandbox mode, either. You will always have to play the same game mode, so there's not much room for exploration.

This is a great game to pop in and play for an hour or so. Pretty simple to learn, but the changing objectives each game, along with the automatically changing difficulty level keeps things fresh and challenging. Balancing how to use your dice to meet objectives and keeping enough resources on hand is a fun way to exercise the ol' brain.

i dont know why this game is so addictive. but you we will get hooked . fast enough and deep enough to keep me going for ages, huge replay ability

I am the #1 ranked player in the world. This is a small and perfect game. I love it. It has both strategic depth and randomness, and the trial and error each time is a great experience.

I wanted to like this game. I really did. But there are some major fundamental problems with how it's played that make it not fun for me. 1. There's supposedly an "undo" with right-click, but more than half the types of actions, primarily the ones where you realllllllly want an undo if you do one by accident, the undo simply doesn't work at all. The game is open-knowledge. Nothing is random except between phases. There is no reason any action shouldn't be able to be undone unless it reveals random information, and really the game should have a complete undo "stack" where you can undo back to the beginning of a turn. 2. When you abandon or fail, it (sometimes?!?) decreases the difficulty ("rank"). There is no way to turn this off. You can manually set the value, but only to 5 or 10, not to anything else. Since a "bad" starting position makes the game basically unwinnable at higher ranks, the fact that you can't retry on a new map and have to replay an earlier difficulty sucks. There are some other, less fatal issues as well, such as the "help" being insufficient and you having to basically guess what some things do until you try them, but the two above issues made me stop playing and uninstall the game.

I love this game and Militia 2 too. This two are pure tactics and strategy, without any distraction. And much less time consuming, than classic tactical or strategic turn based games.

重たくて時間のかかるものの多いストラテジーゲームを一人用ボードゲーム風に短くサクッと遊ぶことが出来るゲーム。パズルゲームの様に気軽に繰り返し遊ぶことができる。クリアの度に難易度が上がり、失敗すると難易度が下がるので、常にちょうどいいゲームを楽しめて、やり込める。 カードやサイコロのバランスも良く、遊んでいて違和感が無い。自動生成されるマップやクリア条件は時に簡単だったり困難だったりもするが、短い時間で何度もチャレンジできるので全体的に見てバランスが取れている。 操作も分かりやすく、また繰り返し遊ぶ度に少しずつプレイヤーにゲームの細かい部分を教えてくれる仕様も親切。ただ、アクションの巻き戻しは1回だけじゃなくもう少し巻き戻したかった。自分の操作ミスや計算ミスは受け入れてプレイしよう。 シンプルで遊びやすい反面、抽象的すぎてフレーバーに物足りなさも感じてしまった。 日本語環境はサポート外だが、私の日本語環境の Windows 10 では問題なく動作している。翻訳MODなどは無いため自力で英語を読む必要があるが、ルールはさほど複雑ではないため一度覚えればそれほど大変ではない。日本人の実況動画もあるので英語が苦手な人はそちらを参考にすると良い。
