Resurgence (English edition)

The ruined city

No one really knows what triggered the One Day War between the superpowers, but a single day is all it took to end the Before World. After the governments collapsed, leaderless groups of survivors huddled in the ruins of once great cities. The climate is brutal, resources are scarce, and mutant tribes are roaming the wastelands. The world desperately needs a hero to rally the people and lift them out of the ruins.

Unique euro game

Resurgence is a competitive, euro-style board game for one to four players designed by Stan Kordonskiy (Endless Winter, Rurik: Dawn of Kiev, Dice Hospital). The game offers a unique blend of bag-building, hidden worker placement, and resource management that creates a one-of-a-kind gameplay experience. The game was first published after a successful Kickstarter campaign. Now Portal Games is bringing it to the retail market.

Gameplay

At the start of the game, each player selects a hero in charge of a small band of survivors and a few supplies. Each round of the game, players need to secretly plan where they are going to send their workers in order to accomplish various tasks and exert their influence, whether they're completing missions around the city ruins, gathering fuel, food and spare parts, rescuing survivors, learning new skills, or building their base.

Various strategies

Resurgence offers different routes to achieve victory, and in-game events and end-game directive cards provide replayability and variability from game to game. At the end of the game, the hero whose faction is victorious becomes the new leader and unites all the survivor groups in the sanctuary of Hope Island.
