Hey I've been working on this abstract strategy board game on and off for more than 10 years. I've picked up the project again trying to get a digital version up and running in the browser that is playable.

It's still under development, but you can check out the repository here: https://github.com/GreenAnts/Amalgam_Webgame/tree/main?tab=readme-ov-file. (There are links on the main page for rules, and etc)

Rulebook: https://github.com/GreenAnts/Amalgam_Webgame/tree/main/assets/Rulebook

Video tutorial: https://youtu.be/LZD5h4siXVM

Play against a (dumb) bot/AI: https://greenants.github.io/Amalgam_Webgame/ (this is the under development game, and a has a lot of placeholder text - but once you enter the bot game, it should actually work.

The game is a bit niche, and I'm assuming probably won't fit the bill for most people in this instance, but I'm hoping someone might be interested and help us grow this project. The game is open source and creative commons licensed, so I'm hoping the game will become community created.

Anyways, if you check it out, I'd greatly appreciate it!

I like to playtest browser games from time to time, and will add this to my list. Probably get to it in a few days. Thanks for sharing!

Thanks! Don't expect much from the actually not you play against, but it will hopefully at least give you a feel for how the gameplay works ;)

If you remember/have the time to follow up with any feedback after you try it, id love to hear your thoughts (good or bad)
