"It's not the size of the dog in the fight, it's the size of the fight in the dog."
In a galaxy reshaped by a runaway FTL experiment known as "The Cascade," four ordinary dogs have become a force to be reckoned with. As the Spacedogs, you pilot the Cedar—a ship held together by duct tape and rebellion—through a universe of pulpy adventure.
Spacedogs is a cooperative board game that fuses tactical deck construction with immersive, pre-written narrative. Set in a post-Cascade galaxy where reality is unstable, players take on the roles of four transformed canine heroes: Nova, Cosmo, Aurora, and Orion.
Asymmetrical 1-vs-Many
Up to four players become the Spacedogs, navigating through scenarios, while one player becomes the Game Runner. They aren't just a referee — they're the narrator, the tactical opponent, and the architect of a challenge. They control enemy tactics, reveal plot twists triggered by your actions, and manage the campaign. And the best part? They have their own hidden goals and progression.
Tactical Depth
- Deck Construction: Before each scenario, players select Equipment (Weapon, Armor, Tool) that contributes specific cards to their deck.
- Stance & Synergy: Each character has a unique Stance (passive effect) that can amplify allies' abilities. Coordinate positioning and chain abilities to create powerful team combos.
- Temperament Management: Walk the line between "Wild" and "Tame." Push too far to the "Berserk" side, and you lose control; drift too "Domesticated," and you become too docile to act.
- Campaign Progression: Unlock special abilities, gain new equipment, and modify your deck as you progress through 12 interconnected scenarios.
