THE GAME

The origins

EQUARIOR is a strategy game originally developed for military command. It is based on a behavioral analysis methodology that has won several awards in France and Germany. Since 2010, it has been offered to companies as a Serious Game and as a support for team-building training. Each piece of the game reflects a part of your personality.

We then decided to offer this game to the general public, for anyone interested in strategy games and wishing to challenge themselves while discovering an innovative game mechanic.

The objective

The aim of the game is to capture or block the opposing Duelist.

There are several ways to achieve this.

It's up to you to learn how to use the power of the eight pieces in your possession and discover all their subtleties to defeat your opponent.

The rules are easy to learn, allowing beginners to quickly get to grips with the game, and initiates to discover the inexhaustible wealth of EQUARIOR.

A game can last from a few seconds to several tens of minutes, depending on the strategy adopted by each player.

The 8 pieces

Each player has his own procession of 8 different pieces: the Warrior, the Conqueror, the Duelist, the Pilgrim, the Protector, the Governor, the Advisor and the Alchemist.

Each has its own role and powers. Some are gripping pieces, others animate, others protect or mediate. As a single piece on the board is not enough to advance in the game, interactions between them are at the heart of EQUARIOR.

Why play EQUARIOR?

Although EQUARIOR follows in the footsteps of strategy games such as Chess or Checkers, it differs greatly in its game mechanics and the interactions between the pieces. 

Here are a few highlights that sum up the game's dynamics:

  • 8 pieces per player, 8 different roles

  • They interact with each other in a highly combinatorial way, with no single part having any influence on the game.

  • At the start of the game, all pieces are off the board.

  • Free placement and movement of parts

  • There are several ways to end a game, by catching or blocking the opposing Duelist

Versions

EQUARIOR is playable from 2 players up to 8, depending on the board size chosen. Develop new strategies by teaming up with other players around the table, and emerge victorious from these more complex and exciting battlefields. 

We're working on a digital version of the game, as well as other developments around its universe.
