About the Game

"In a world where multiverse collide, players wage a war for their own universe. The stakes are the characters called "applicants" who are important to the universe... Players can call on characters from all the Multiverse to join their forces to form the strongest squad and win the war!"

Build War is a deck-building game with varying action phases and innovative mechanics for 1 to 4 players . The four-player simultaneous deck-building phase proceeds at a very high speed and high tempo:

Each player receives 10 cards, assigning 5 cards to the initial deck and 5 cards to the initial hand. Build Draw System: drawing two cards at the same time allows for speedy deck construction. Cards can be acquired at no cost, so powerful cards can be played from the beginning. However, there is a space limitation and managing it is an important part of gameplay. Color and number coded cards, each with its special ability, can be combined in powerful combos. All players play the war phase simultaneously. Revenge system: if you lose, you can take over 5 cards from the deck. The war lasts four rounds, or until someone loses all their lives, and the player with the highest life at the end wins!
