Cytress

Welcome to Cytress.

CYTRESS is a gritty action-packed engine-building area control game set in a dystopian future. Lead your cyberpunk rebels to strategic locations throughout the sprawling corporate slave city of Cytress, with the floating city of Stratos casting a shadow over all. Corrupt the Stratolite elites to drop waste tubes to your crews – and then ascend to Stratos and take control.

In this world, desperation is the only currency that matters, and everyone, even the elite Stratolites, has a price when rebellion is in the air!

An engine-building, set collection, area control and majority game set in a dystopian future.

“This engine building mechanic adding these different parts of each life path to make your character and crew feel strong and powerful and you keep on getting stuff is one of the highlights of the game, it's fun”

“I don't usually think area control works well at two, but I enjoyed it here. With all scoring tallied at the end of the game, it's hard to tell who's winning.... keep you guessing who's actually ahead.”

“This one really stands out and like generations nowadays like to say, it’s gram-worthy. Even for individuals that aren’t boardgamers, I feel the design itself draws traction. And for boardgamers, this is one to add to the collection for sure!”
