A rock paper scissors strategy board game with an army. Chess-style tactics, hidden soldiers and bluffs: find the enemy flag before they find yours. Play online, against 4 AI levels, through a 50-level campaign, or 2 player pass and play on one device.
Gingerbread Gambit is a tactical duel that combines the strategy of chess with the chaos of Rock-Paper-Scissors, wrapped in a candy-pop art style starring gingerbread soldiers.
HOW TO PLAY
Place your army of 14 gingerbread soldiers on your side of the board. Each soldier is secretly one of five types: Rock, Paper, Scissors, Flag, or Trap. Move one piece per turn. When you attack an enemy, both types are revealed and the battle is decided by Rock-Paper-Scissors rules. Same type? A real-time RPS mini-duel decides the winner. Capture the enemy Flag, or eliminate every soldier, to win.
