Unmatched: Slings and Arrows

In battle. there are no equals.

Unmatched is a highly asymmetrical miniature fighting game for two or four players. Each hero is represented by a unique deck designed to evoke their style and legend. Tactical movement and no-luck combat resolution create a unique play experience that rewards expertise. but just when you’ve mastered one set. new heroes arrive to provide all new match-ups.

Combat is resolved quickly by comparing attack and defense cards. However. each card’s unique effects and a simple but deep timing system lead to interesting decisions each time. The game also features an updated version of the line-of-sight system from Tannhäuser for ranged attacks and area effects.

All the world’s a stage in Unmatched: Slings and Arrows. while the Globe Theater is a battlefield. William Shakespeare steps up to the fight along with three of his wondrous characters: The Wayward Sisters. Hamlet. and Titania. Shakespeare’s deck. designed by Jonathan Guberman. was one of the winning decks in a 2020 design competition. and it rewards players for completing lines in iambic pentameter. The Wayward Sisters. a runner-up in that competition from Jason Hager. is a multi-hero deck that challenges you to bring the witches’ potion machinations to life with cunning co-ordination.
