Goal

A 3×4 shared board. Play one card per turn (hand of 3, 10-card singleton deck). Nodes fire orthogonal beams (skip empties), capture tiles at ≤0 power (reset to 1), cascades depth 4. After 6 rounds, highest controlled power wins (or board full).

First two minutes

  1. Tap Play. Pick a craft if asked: Volt (Flood), Prismatic (Redirect), Void (Invert).
  2. Drag or tap a node from hand onto a legal grid cell.
  3. Watch beams capture / chain. Energy scales 1→6 across rounds; turns are timed (15s).
  4. After a first win, try Daily for a shareable score. Campaign is extra districts vs AI.

Tester notes

  • Catalog unreleased but the web slice is playable.
  • Godot copy lives in chain-reactor/godot/ — same Phase-1 rules.
