Shapeships is a strategy board game where shared dice become lines, lines become ships, and ships grow into strange, powerful fleets.
Shapeships is a simultaneous-turn strategy game about building a fleet and reacting to your opponent.
Each turn, a shared dice roll gives both players lines. Lines make ships. Ships have powers. Fleets stay on the board, so every turn compounds: damage engines, healing walls, greedy economy, control pieces, upgrades, counters, and sudden lethal turns.
Shapeships isn’t about movement or targeting. Ships don't move, don't have health, and (mostly) don't interact with each other directly. When you build a ship, its power becomes a permanent part of your fleet. The game is won by building the fleet that outpaces, outlasts, or breaks your opponent’s.
