Node is a competitive strategy game where players compete to quickly build the best node network. A series of square cards are shuffled and laid out to form the game board, and players then place nodes on the corners, and branches on the edges of the squares. Every node a player places on the board grants them additional resources, which can then be used to buy additional nodes and branches to further expand their network. Things quickly become tricky though, as the squares on the board can become exhausted and stop granting resources, or captured by a player. Players accumulate points by placing nodes, capturing squares, and having the largest network, first to 10 points wins. Experienced players may also play the advanced ruleset, which is even more challenging! —description from the publisher
