Wars and Pieces

Description

Set in 1618 Germany at the outbreak of the Thirty Years' War, *Wars and Pieces* plunges players into a tense, turn-based strategy duel sparked by the infamous Defenestration of Prague. One player takes command as the Protestant Estates, the other as the Catholic Emperor, clashing for dominance on a shared battlefield. Unique in its design, the game forces both players to use a single mouse, taking turns to place war pieces and outmaneuver their opponent. Originally created for Wizard Jam 8, *Wars and Pieces* has been updated with improved UI, new jugabilidad features, and an AI opponent for solo matches. Future plans include randomized maps and expanded resource mechanics. Drawing visual inspiration from historical engravings by Jacques Callot and Matthäus Merian, the game blends authentic aesthetics with modern indie design. *Wars and Pieces* delivers a compact, competitive experience rooted in real conflict.
