About This Demo

Welcome to Sente! In this demo you'll be able to get a small glimpse at some of the core components of the game and what you can expect in the final game.

Within this initial demo version we're focusing solely on the single player element allowing people to jump into the tutorial, a few of the puzzles and even duke it out in a 1v1 match with one of our bot opponents.
Over the course of the next few months, we intend to continually evolve the Demo to introduce more elements to the game to allow us to refine and test. Coming in the Summer we intend to open up the multiplayer component for testing in limited waves to allow players to duke it out against real, living humans and put their strategies to the test. 

We hope you'll join us along the way to help shape Sente into the best it can be! A game for strategy fans, by strategy fans!

Sente is a strategic board game where every player moves at the same time.  
Your victory isn’t about acting first; it’s about thinking ahead.  

Set out on a campaign to outthink your opponent by placing your nodes and spreading your energy network across the board. Try to anticipate your opponent and commit to a strategy that may well change in the next turn. The match ends when either you (or your opponent) outmanouevers the other and make direct connection with their energy core, resulting in a critical overload. Connections spark, systems collapse, and explosive chain reactions reshape the battlefield in an instant.
 
Dig deeper into Sente and you'll find a game that relies on foresight and prediction, resulting in deep consequence with each passing move. 

• Simultaneous gameplay creates intense mind games every round 

• Build and disrupt energy networks to take control of the grid 

• Chain reactions and board control can turn small decisions into dramatic shifts 

• Dynamic board layouts help to ensure every match feels different and no two games are the same. 

• Create custom arenas with the in-game board editor and build your own challenges

• Replay matches to analyse tactics and refine your strategy
