Village War: The Calamity is a card-drafting, resource management, and spirit war game. The theme and narration is a combination of the history, folklore, myths and our fantasy of the Igbo tribe in Nigeria, Africa. During game set-up, players each take their own village (including 10 different warriors, 11 resources which are selected randomly, 3 artifacts, and their wall). Warriors are different, and some of them possess unique powers to form combos during the war! And the artifacts are gifts from the gods with fierce powers. As players, you also have the chance to buy new artifacts during gameplay. Your aim is to win the battle and earn more resources as tributes paid from other players. The player with the most VPs — a sum of tributes collected and warrior power rank — wins. Village War: The Calamity is the first of a five-game series that exposes the Igbo culture more than any other game in history. The game story (12 pages) narrates the inspirations behind the artwork and the story, and the game features masquerades, Priest(ess), and other creatures with Igbo origin in mind. The pulisher also had a live studio record for the game to create the right melody creating a 65-minutes "Igbo War music" instrumental for that extra experience. —description from the publisher
