A hex-based skirmisher on a modular board
Players will draft a team of characters and take turns surviving the end of time performing actions and fighting against enemy teams and an AI. Characters adventure through the void gathering, building, casting abilities, taming monsters attacking enemies, and more. Each character comes with its own unique stats and skills that allow for custom playstyles.
Character Classes
Survivors
The main characters that are initially drafted for the Boss Battle Royale and Boss Raid modes. Survivors have progression allowing them to become stronger over the course of a game.
Sentience
The boss that must be defeated in the Boss Battle Royale and Boss Raid modes but can be drafted in the Skirmish mode. Sentiences will have some sort of mob they can control to spread out around the battlefield.
Monsters
Monsters consist of beasts and brutes. Monsters can be tamed by Survivors in the Boss Battle Royale and Boss Raid modes but can be drafted in the Skirmish mode. Brutes specifically can be mounted by Survivors creating a combined unit called a behemoth.
Multiple game modes
Skirmish - a head-to-head brawl where all characters are draftable based on a point system.
Boss Raid - a cooperative experience where draft survivors to work together to defeat the Lost.
Boss Battle Royale - an all-out battle that will have players battling against the Lost and other players at the same time.

Something Old
Traditional Mechanics
TimeStrike has some classic features you would expect to see.
Character Progression and Inventory
TimeStrike characters have their own character boards for tracking status conditions and progression. They also use this to manage their inventory of materials, fish, items, and artifacts.
Action System
TimeStrike uses an Energy and Action system for things like Fishing, Mining, Trading, Attacking, and more. Trying to optimize these turns by performing as many actions is possible is key.
AI System
In two of the game modes, an AI card system will drive the AI known as 'The Lost'. Specific cards monitor the power and progression of 'The Lost', with a separate shuffled deck drawn at the end of each round to determine its actions.
Something New
Novel Mechanics
TimeStrike has a host of new features that you may not have seen in board games before.
Mountable Miniatures
Innovative miniatures with slots for smaller miniatures to climb on. This opens up a whole new range of features like taming and mounting monsters to create combined characters or the ability to climb on a massive miniature's back to attack them.
Terraforming Environment
Source hexes are non-interlocking for easier placement and removal. The designs tie into gameplay mechanics, allowing for harvesting materials, building roads, destruction via massive miniatures or items, and more without extra components.
Revenge System
Terraforming Environment
