About the game
Ready your conkers for a great battle. Divide & Conker is a 2 to 4 player game. Set up varies dependent on player count. Game play usually lasts 30 minutes and is suitable from age 8 upwards. Gameplay takes place over 2 rounds with a total of 7 battles. At the end of 7 battles, each player counts their victory points from cards in play. The player with the most victory points is the winner. Within a round there are 3 phases; draft, prepare army, battle. In phase 1, players take it in turns drafting cards either from a pyramid or snake draft. Once all cards have drafted move to phase 2. Players can now prepare their army by laying down their collected conkers, applying hardener cards and attaching strings. Once each players army is prepared, play then continues to phase 3. During phase 3 players battle each other by declaring attacking and defending conkers. Player roll the dice and play trick cards during a battle until one conker is defeated. The second battle within round 1 can then commence. When round 1 is over, move to round 2 where these 3 phases are played out but with a total of 5 battles in the final phase instead of 2. If no more battles can be played, the game ends and victory points are counted. —description from the designer
