Schmidt Spiele unveiled Chaos in Gotham City, a new Batman villain trick-taking game, which will be released in Q1 2023.
In this game, players take on the roles of villains who are out to bring havoc upon Gotham City. At the beginning of each trick-taking round, a location card is revealed for players to “commit their crimes” at. They play cards from their hands in an attempt to take tricks in a fight for the location card. Along with locations, players will collect Batman points and Chaos points in tricks. The goal of the game is to create chaos in Gotham by scoring Chaos points over the course of gameplay. Once the tricks have been played out, the player with the most Batman points scores no Chaos points.
This game lasts as many rounds as there are people playing. At the end of the game, the player with the most Chaos points wins. The game is for two to six players, ages 8 and up and plays in 15 to 30 minutes.
Devir Games announced that it will publish Schmidt Spiele’s titles in English for the U.S. market (see “Devir Games and Schmidt Spiele Ink a Publishing Agreement“).
