Eschaton Gameplay
GATHER YOUR CULT!
Initiate cultists from the Conclave to build your cult and develop your strategy. Sacrifice the weak and favor the strongest, shaping your deck through the course of the game.
DIVINATE THE ARCANA!
Enlist arcane cultists and use their attributes to divinate the Arcana Deck, bolstering your cult with powerful Relics, Edicts, Auras, and Fiends. The unique cards found within serve to enhance your deck with unique abilities and characters to hone your strategy.
CONQUER THE REALM!
Command your forces across the Realm Map - lay waste to your opponents’ armies, and rise in Favor as you conquer the territories in your name. Control of the Realm yields favor with the Dark One upon the revelation of Armageddon and bolsters your standing throughout the course of play. Crush your enemies and ascend on the path of the chosen!
REVEL IN DARK OMENS!
While the cults muster and make war, the passage of Events and Omens dictate the narrative of gameplay and provide valuable objectives to seize as the end approaches. Each playthrough of Eschaton will yield a new experience as the semi random Event Deck weaves the story of the end of days.
STAND AS THE DARK ONE’S CHOSEN!
Armageddon is nigh! Tally your conquests, treasures, and achievements to see who will reign as the chosen. The player that earns the most favor through these pursuits ascends as the victor. Only one cult shall stand triumphant!

I had the pleasure of being shown this game at PAX Unplugged and was immediately hooked. Eschaton includes enough strategy components and events to keep the game interesting for its full duration. This is balanced by keeping the mechanics fairly straight-forward. Each turn, I felt like I had plenty of agency to make decisions that had a meaningful impact on the game. The art style, board, pieces, and lore are all testaments to the passion poured into creating this game.

The initial vibe and look of game caught my attention. Upon playing game flows very well and works like a typical deck building game. thank the Dark One for this game and all the accessories.

My friends and I played it straight out of the box with only the advert that inspired me to purchase it. Great fun. Got high and drunk and had a good time playing it. Easy to play with everyone hoping to draw Armageddon win or lose. Will certainly be purchasing more of your games. Cheers.
