A downloadable game

Hope Lost features 6 different apocalypses to play through, each with their own objective and unique spin to the game’s common mechanics. Players will need to fight the apocalypses as well as time itself, all the while trying to make sure the survivors at the base have everything they need. Will you survive the apocalypse, or is all hope lost?

This is a digitized version made specifically for the playdate, of the print-and-play board game of the same name. If you like this and are interested in playing the physical version, give the original a look here. Files are free to download and print, and aside from that you just need a few dice and pawns to play!

Looks cool! I will try both the playdate demo and the print and play version.

Thanks, hope you enjoy it! Would love to hear your thoughts

I haven't tried the print and play version yet (i dont have that many dice xD) but this version is quite fun. It feels a bit easy, but maybe the other modes are more challenging. Does the physical version have the same rules?

I'm eager to try the final version! It goes really well on playdate.

Glad you had fun! Armageddon is the easiest scenario to win, yeah - the others crank up the difficulty quite a bit.

The physical game does use the same rules, though at launch it was a bit rough balance-wise. I'm trying to fix that in this release, and then backport any changes to the physical game once I'm happy with how it all works.

And of course the other way around - you can have a look at the print-and-play rules to get a decent feel for how the other scenarios change things up!
