What is it ?
As artificial intelligence slowly becomes self-aware, you enter a struggle with only two possible outcomes: either you impose the protocols that form the basis of your existence to define the world in which you operate, or your existence will have been nothing more than a brief quantum flutter that quickly vanished.
Gameplay
Compile is a competitive card game for two players. At the start of the game, players select 3 Protocols from the 12 available (base game) and build their draw piles with the corresponding Command cards. They then take turns playing their Command cards and using their effects wisely, trying to score enough points to “compile” each of their 3 Protocols. The first player to complete all 3 of their Protocols wins the game.
Compile is an expandable game; a base set contains 12 Protocols, and a booster pack contains 3 additional Protocols. All base sets and future booster packs can be mixed and matched, providing a high degree of replayability.
