Introduction

Chaining is a dynamic and strategic board game mechanic that allows players to combine a series of actions or card plays for greater effect.

Chaining refers to the ability to link multiple game elements together in a single turn or over multiple turns, activating additional actions, bonuses, or combinations that can enhance a player's position or disrupt opponents.

Examples

Impact on Gameplay

Chaining significantly affects strategic depth and player engagement. It encourages foresight and careful planning, as players must anticipate and construct potential combos that will optimize their performance within the game.
