Cendovia Uprising
SteamCendovia Uprising is a turn-based tactical combat game. Play cards to deploy your troops, then advance your army across the battlefield. You must destroy the enemy's leader before they destroy yours. Navigate changing terrain as you fight among ten factions to conquer Cendovia. Customize your deck for each engagement.

Cendovia Uprising offers 4 play modes:

Your cards have a wide variety of attributes that influence their abilities. Learn the powers of each card by reading their stats. Manage your resources to ensure you can fund your battles. And watch replays of any of your matches to study your tactics to improve your strategy. Or just relive your glorious victories.

Your deck consists of your leader, starters, and reserves. Every battle begins with only your leader on the battlefield and your starter cards in your hand. In subsequent turns, you draw cards from your reserves. Tailoring your decks to match the terrain and your opponent can aid in combat.

There are over 50 unique battlefields spread across the island of Cendovia. While they are all grid based, they vary in size and terrain. A wide variety of terrain effects present both obstacles and opportunities.
In campaign mode, when you capture a territory you gain access to its facilities, which can help you fund and strengthen your army.

It's 2074. A decade has passed on the remote island of Cendovia since the robot uprising. With great struggle against that uprising, humanity eventually had gained the upper hand against the robotic Takan Guard. After surrounding the robots in the center of the island, the people became embroiled in territorial disputes amongst themselves. Despite most factions sharing Vergenessa as their common goddess, their distinct ideologies kept them apart.
A civil war known as The Fracturing ensued. When the dust settled, ten factions, including the Takan Guard, divided the island into ten regions. A tenuous peace descended allowing the inhabitants to rebuild. Slowly and quietly they prepared for a return to hostilities. Now, Cendovia finds itself on the brink of another civil war and your people must again fight for their survival.
Cendovia Uprising comes with over 200 unique cards which is more than enough for any playstyle you choose. Play as any of the 10 factions. All players start with the same set of cards. There are no loot boxes and it's not pay to win.
While all these cards are available to you in scrimmage and online modes, in campaign mode you start with a small set of cards in your deck and gain more as you progress. Campaign mode is the only mode in which you can mix fighters from different factions into the same deck.
