DeathCaps
DeathCaps is a strategy game where you are a mushroom battling for survival. The goal of the game is to be the last mushroom standing and capture as much area as you can along the way.
How to Play
The game takes place on a 9x3 grid. Any time you move into the grassland you claim it for yourself. If you retreat, the area you claimed will slowly turn back into grassland so you have to maintain your territory. The last two columns will always be yours so you always have somewhere to run. You can move freely in your territory but your opponent’s is off limits.

Attacking
Each player will pick 4 of the 12 total adaptations and then the battle begins. You will have 2 adaptations available at any given time throughout the fight and you can use them to deal damage and lay deadly traps. After you use an attack, your next attack will take its place and the one you used moves to the back of the line.

Adaptations
There are 3 classes of adaptations.
The Root class is your primary method of doing damage. These let you shoot roots out of the ground to hit your opponent or destroy traps.
The Spore class lets you place obstacles on the battlefield. They can throw an opponent off but watch your step, they affect you too!
Last is the Wilds class, these attacks start from your own back row and advance along the battlefield. Some of these can backfire and hurt you as well so use them wisely.
