Watch the BATTLE TRAIN launch trailer below:
BATTLE TRAIN is set against a backdrop of the world's most exciting game show of the same name, where players take on the role of contestants to engage in train combat against Rival Champions. By collecting and playing cards, contestants build tracks to unlock resources, protect their own bases, and attack enemy structures. Tracks are played on the grid using cards, each with a resource cost. Connect a track to an enemy base to send a locomotive chock-full of explosives on a one-way ticket to the enemy. Destroy the rival champion's bases first to win the round, earning new deck cards, currency for customization, train upgrades, and more. Players must outfit a powerful locomotive, craft a strategic deck, and use all their skills to out-blast opponents in a battle to become the Supreme President Conductor. Curious "loco-splosive" enthusiasts can try a free demo of the game now on Steam.
