The Great Wall is a new asymmetrical worker/soldier placement game with engine-building themes and a twist in the form of a constantly attacking AI (Mongol Horde) that requires players to cooperate to defeat it. Players will control ancient clans in China, trying to defend against Mongol invasions and build a Great Wall.
Each player will want to win (earning VP = Victory Points), but they also need to cooperate to defend against the hordes. Each clan will be asymmetrical through their chosen Leader (resource production/starting resources/starting workers and units), and this asymmetry will increase as the game progresses (players will recruit Advisors with unique abilities, often creating unique engines).
The game is divided into 3 main phases: Production, Wall Defense, Wall Construction. During the Production phase, players will place orders via cards (face down) simultaneously and then decide on the timing of their execution.
