Description

Kaiju Stadium is a two-player strategy game about giant monsters playing sports. In it, you make use of dice, play cards, and unique kaiju abilities to pull off wild combinations and score points against your opponent.

Each turn, you roll two dice and pick from them to decide what you're going to do with that turn. The dice give you movement options, let you kick the ball, and more, plus you have access to limited-use Play cards that let you do things that aren't on the dice. Beyond that, every kaiju has a pair of unique special abilities: one that modifies how it interacts with the basic rules of the game (e.g. Hyperion can trample through opposing kaiju while moving) and one that happens when they switch onto the field from the sidelines (e.g. Nimbus can steal the ball from a nearby space). You're going to spend each turn making decisions about who to move, who to have on the field, and what to do with your kaiju, trying to solve the ongoing puzzle of "can I score a point this turn or not?"

Get the ball into the opponent's goal to score a point. The game is over when a player can reach three or more points with a two point lead or when either play reaches five points.

Rounds take about 15-30 minutes and the game rarely unfolds the exact same way twice, so the game is meant to be played several times in a row.
