Choose your clan, prepare for battle, and fight for control of powerful crystals in Crystal Clans, a battle card game for two players.

In every game of Crystal Clans, you go to battle with unique armies, seeking to outmaneuver your opponent and lead your squad to victory. Six clans stand ready to battle for dominance, including the adaptable Water Clan, the peaceful Flower Clan, the relentless Skull Clan, the innumerable Blood Clan, the wise Meteor Clan, and the unyielding Stone Clan. Each clan's cards can be used in multiple ways, giving you more options and adding surprise to each battle. The first clan to claim four crystals wins the game and fulfills their destiny to dominate the world.

Near-perfect PvP strategy

Tight design, beautiful artwork, quick and tactical gameplay. One thing that would've made it better is the addition of some sort of RNG or a way to hide unit information from the other player. As it is, with all unit stats and abilities in plain view, most matches get bogged down as you try to calculate the outcome of each move and engagement in advance and painstakingly optimize your turn. Sure, the combat cards played from hand/deck add a degree of unpredictability, but that does nothing to prevent to instinctive AP that sets in after the first couple of turns.

Average

It is a fun game to play. Starts off strong but might run a little too long.

Th new premium market cards add some unique opportunity for collecting end-game spirit points.

Great game for 2 people

Recommend it. Short 20 mins game.

Bidding, Luck, and Timing

This game gives you the thematic feeling of trying to cast the best (or worst) horror film. You'll be engaged every turn by seeing what your opponents are bidding for and choosing at the Horror conventions. A great game for the Halloween season. If your game group consists of 4 players and you're into Reiner Knizia's bidding/auction mechanics then this is definitely a must try for you!

Very fun beginners war game

This is my 2nd game I purchased after getting into the hobby. I play Undaunted with my 11 year old brother and we have an absolute blast everytime we play. We play each scenario as best of 3 and switch sides everytime to decide a winner and move to the next. There's also many many player made scenarios on the forums that we'll definitely do after we finish the base game. Overall, highly recommended.
