About XenoShyft
The hit Kickstarter boardgame, now available on mobile!
Defend against waves of horrific Hive beasts in this beautifully illustrated, base defense, deck-building game for 1 to 4 players!
"One of the most fun co-op games I have played in a long time!" - Tom Vasel (The Dice Tower)
"The enemies are just monstrous and difficult!" - Rodney Smith (Watch it Played)
In XenoShyft Onslaught players take on the role of a commander in the NorTec Corporation. You're tasked with defending your division of the NorTec base as wave after wave of horrific Hive beasts attempt to destroy the base and end NorTec's strip mining operation.
Gameplay Features
1 - 4 players - Single player compatible, fully cooperative gameplay.
Strong focus on coordination and strategic planning - to overcome the game's intense difficulty players will need to work together.
Base-Defense with deck-building elements
Incredible art - Illustrated by three amazing artists, XenoShyft features beautiful and consistent art. All of which creates one cohesive and frightening universe.
Inventive and exciting armor and weapon upgrade cards - You'll need to outfit your troops with the best equipment if you hope to survive.
Xenoshyft is a game for 1-4 players, with each player controlling one of the divisions of the Nortec military: The Science Labs, Med Bay, Armory, Weapon's Research, Barracks and Command Center. Each of these divisions represents one part of the overall Nortec base, and it is your job as Commander of these divisions to protect the base while its field operations are completed.
You and your teammates will have to work together to survive the continuous onslaught of horrors – the goal of the mission is not to wipe out these threats, it is merely to outlast them!
Survive through nine rounds of combat with these horrors and the base will have succeeded in its mission, and you and your allies will have survived to fight another day!

User reviews
The game is brutally difficult, but I enjoy it. I like this version over the card game because there is less shuffling, but sometimes I think the ai gets the rules wrong. Ahh it doesn't matter I was going to lose anyway.
fun
Ive had this game for about two years and have yet to beat it lol With that said, its one of the best CCGs on GP. Great graphics, sound design , UI, etc. 5/5 easy
The interface could be a little cleaner but it brings a really good game to mobile for a good price. Well worth the money.
Brutally hard even on easy! But easily playable on a phone thanks to the quick zoom on cards. Multiplayer login should be linked to the Google account.
Really fun to play. Sadly there is just no one on multiplayer. Be prepared to get your face demolished before you start winning at this game. Once in a while you get bad rng and loose in suffering, but most of the time you can use all the card ability at your disposal to mitigate enough damage or do just enough dama...
