Hard City

Hard City is a board game for 1–5 players. It plays in 30–60 minutes and is meant for ages 12 and up. Ludoya players call it best with 2.

Players take the roles of Hard City police officers or, in solo/versus play, the villain controlling waves of mutants. The game unfolds across scenario-based episodes set in a rainy, neon-lit 1980s city where officers spend action points to move, shoot, escort civilians, and use character abilities while the antagonist uses a card-driven system to spawn, move, and attack with mutant hordes. Matches and campaigns present distinct objectives and setups; episodes are playable individually and form a linked story. Play emphasizes tactical positioning, resource management, cooperative coordination against escalating threats, and asymmetric play when one player runs the villainous forces.
