Description
A deck-building card game set in an all dog medieval world. Two sides have been fighting a war for ages, the red and the blue houses, but when The Great Distraction happens, nobody can remember what team they're on. Now it's up to you to draft dogs to your side and win the war!
Players will take turns drafting hounds to their side. They'll then play three at a time: 1 to attack, 1 to defend and 1 to use their ability. Gain treats for damage dealt and use it to buy heroes to your deck.
Keep attacking your enemies until you're the last one standing!

Quotes (from this video)
- hey everybody and welcome to my top 10 most anticipated board games for 2025
- this is a snapshot in time but there are 10 games here that I'm really excited for and cannot wait to try this year
- so this one I can imagine is going to be featured on quite a few people's most anticipated games list um because it seems to have this gear mechanism that is reminiscent of a game called zulin which is one of my favorite Euro games of all time
- the main again feature here that Drew my attention was the the theme because this is Set uh in I think it's Victorian London I might beuda London um where you are trying to to profit from kind of cleaning the streets because this is before the know the sewage system came uh into place
- so if you watch my content regularly or even see my icon you might know that I'm quite a big fan of the the medieval genre I love the kind of aruan Legends probably my favorite theme in board Gaming Full Stop
- so this is actually um based on a conclave which is a theme that I think is so fascinating and I'm surprised this hasn't been explored at least in depth before
- so it wouldn't be a chairman of the board list without some stefen Feld
- normally Fel games are of course a bit more Care Bear friendly a bit more Point salad style games this one it seems a bit more confrontational
- so I'm really into my card games and this one sounds right up my alley
