The year is 1942. In the frozen ruins of Stalingrad, survival is a battle against the odds.
A sudden German offensive has shattered Soviet lines, leaving your squad cut off deep behind enemy territory. With supplies dwindling, enemy patrols closing in, and the brutal Russian winter tightening its grip, every decision you make could mean life or death. Can you navigate the war-torn streets, outmaneuver or fight off the enemy and find your way back to Soviet lines? Or will your squad be just another forgotten casualty in the ruins of Stalingrad?
Surviving Stalingrad is a card-driven survival game for a single player, packed into a portable mint tin with just 36 cards. There are no dice, no luck-based mechanics—only tough choices. Every encounter card presents a new challenge, from desperate scavenging missions to deadly enemy encounters. You’ll need to manage your actions and resources, have your soldiers work as a team, and decide when to press forward or find cover.
Your goal is simple: reach Soviet lines alive. But survival is never guaranteed—will your entire squad make it, or will some be left behind in the ruins?
