Summary

The Temporal War is a strategic, yet delightfully-chaotic, arena-battle board game for two to six players. Players are split into two teams and use cards and dice to summon warriors into the arena and battle for supremacy.

The average game lasts 15-20 minutes for each player at the table (give or take, depending on the players). However, between all the action and strategy, you are very likely to loose track of time! 😉


How to Play

The Temporal War can be played online, using Tabletop Simulator. This is a game on the Steam platform. We also attend and host in-person events where you can play with the same cards you use online.

With this online-first strategy, we aim to grow our community before publishing physical copies. This will ensure that all cards are thoroughly battle tested and that you will be able to find others who know how to play!

Leonel is the third born child to a family of struggling merchants. His older brothers had their paths chosen for them, one taking up the family business, the other going into the military.

Leonel, on the other hand, was free to do as he pleased, without assistance of course. And so, he worked, and he trained, and when the day came, he left the safety of the kingdom’s walls to explore the wildlands.

He did not return for fifteen long years, but when he did, he carried an artifact of untold power.

For centuries, Thura has held the Crystal of Light, as her people call it. For centuries, she has commanded the angelic army and led them into battle against the demons below.

She bears this responsibility with a solemn air, bound by a vow of silence. This vow magnifies her already incredible powers. To command her army, she watches from above and uses the art of telepathy.

Little is known of Thura’s true desires, but a certain longing hides behind her green eyes.

There are many elf villages throughout the wildlands, and they all know Influeriel as their lord and ruler. From his tower, by the authority of the mythic crystal, he issues his decrees.

This has been the way of things for many generations, as elves live up to ten times that humans. However one day, Influeriel too must relinquish the throne and make way for his successor.

Many elves from the upper houses have already started readying for that day.

Maraga lived a bountiful and blessed life as a priestess and healer within the human kingdom, but when she herself fell ill, no other healer could save her.

She had accepted her fate, as all people should, but then, the night she was to pass, a dark figure entered her room. They set object before her that glowed a faint blue. In a daze, she picked it up with shaky hands.

As darkness fell, a terrible secret whispered into her mind. Moments later, she woke, cold and angry.

Okah was the first and only assassin in Angelic Order history. The position was created due to Okah’s exceptional ability to shapeshift. They could pass as anyone, even a demon.

Okah spent over a century behind enemy lines before – silence. Another century passed before they reemerged, wearing an ominous necklace and leading a small demon army.

Despite the scene, Okah spoke words peace. Confused and suspicious the angels refused, and the battle began.

Two principles rule beast society: survival of the fittest and dedication to your tribe. The strong deserve respect and carry a heavy burden.

None carry a heavier burden than Zodag. The young beast man was chosen at birth for his astonishing magical potential. Thus, his childhood filled with relentless training for the day he would inherit the tribe’s most sacred possession, The Burning Gem.

Now fully grown, Zodag has ascended and become the tribe’s most powerful champion in history.
