About the game
Axia: Slayer Combo is a tactical card-placement and dice-management game where you take on the role of a Slayer, a legendary hunter tasked with restoring peace to the lands of Axia. After the fall of the walls of Alakat, fearsome beasts and acolytes of ancient lineages roam freely across unknown regions. Only your strategic skill can stop them. Over the course of 8 rounds, each Slayer builds a 3x3 territory of cards. On each turn, you will select dice from a shared pool, both physical and magical, to wound or defeat the creatures inhabiting your map. The core of the game lies in its combo system: defeating certain beasts triggers immediate effects, allowing you to perform additional attacks, gain tactical tools, or chain multiple actions within a single turn. Your score depends on your ability to activate objective cards placed along the edges of your territory. You will only earn points by completing entire rows or columns, which can be combined with points from defeated beasts and unused tools. Will you rise as a legendary Slayer, or remain a mere apprentice in the chronicles of Axia? —description from the publisher
