🌊 Adamastor – Solo contro il mare, il fato e la paura

Affronta tempeste, disperazione e gloria nell’età delle grandi esplorazioni.

Le vele si gonfiano, il vento taglia come una lama e l’orizzonte è solo un’idea. Tu sei il capitano. Davanti a te, un oceano che non conosce pietà. Dietro di te, uomini esausti, superstiziosi, pronti a credere che le onde abbiano un’anima. E in un certo senso, ce l’hanno davvero.

Ogni carta che giochi in Adamastor è una scelta tra sopravvivere e cedere. Guidare la ciurma, gestire la rotta, mantenere la fede nel successo mentre il mare stesso sembra volerti inghiottire. La gloria del regno pesa sulle tue spalle, ma il mare non fa distinzioni tra eroi e folli.

E quando la tempesta arriva, non è l’acqua a spaventarti. È lo sguardo dei tuoi uomini, e la certezza che il vero mostro sei tu.

“Non tutti i capitani trovano la terra. Alcuni trovano se stessi.”

⚓ Una sfida in solitario tra mare, morale e sopravvivenza

Adamastor è un gioco da tavolo solitario di strategia e gestione pubblicato da Ludonova, ideato da Orlando Sá e illustrato da Jorge Tabanera Redondo. Ambientato nell’epoca delle grandi esplorazioni marittime, ti mette nei panni di un capitano incaricato di spingersi oltre i confini del mondo conosciuto. Attraverso un sistema di carte multiuso e un raffinato meccanismo di gestione del morale dell’equipaggio, dovrai affrontare tempeste, ammutinamenti e scelte morali difficili. Ogni decisione è una lama a doppio taglio: troppo rigore può distruggere la ciurma, troppa compassione può far naufragare la missione. Con un livello di complessità medio e una forte componente psicologica, Adamastor si distingue come un’esperienza solitaria profonda, tesa e poetica, perfetta per chi cerca un titolo narrativo e strategico allo stesso tempo.

⚙️ “Il Capitano e il Mare”

Il cuore di Adamastor è la gestione della mano, dove ogni carta rappresenta azioni, risorse e stati emotivi della ciurma. Usare una carta al momento giusto può evitare un ammutinamento, ma privarti di risorse vitali per le tempeste successive. Le carte trauma accumulano stress e difficoltà, simulando la tensione crescente di un equipaggio allo stremo. Non si tratta solo di sopravvivere, ma di capire quanto sei disposto a sacrificare per arrivare alla meta. Un equilibrio perfetto tra tattica e introspezione, dove ogni turno pesa come un colpo di mare.
