About the Game

Shoot-out in the Bardo immerses players in the ethereal realm between life and the second death, where powerful deities converge to battle for dominion over the very essence of creation. Engage in strategic conflicts as these divine beings shoot it out amidst the Bardo, simultaneously siring mighty kings on Earth. These earthly monarchs carry the divine struggle to the material plane, echoing the great wars of mythology. In this intense competition, only one Pantheon will emerge as the ultimate power, as the Bardo brooks no arbitrators in the pursuit of supremacy. Your ultimate objective is to achieve one of three Mates, a Gentlemen's Mate by completing all three Ambitions, achieving checkmate in the Bardo by pushing your opponents' Deities out of play, or constructing the most formidable kingdom in the material world. If this proves elusive, your secondary goal is to outscore your opponent across six extinction ages. Victory is attained through dominating additional realms, fulfilling ambitious objectives, and employing cunning strategies to surreptitiously siphon power away from your adversaries. Success hinges on astute resource management, strategic planning, and calculated subterfuge.
