Game Modes

Looking to spice things up? These modes are great for advanced players who want new twists, faster rounds, or long-form challenges. Pick one and dive in!

Blitz Mode

Wasteland Blitz

High-octane sprint: first to win 1 Location takes the match. Expect aggressive plays, fast scavenging, and bold gambits.

Extended Mode

Long March (3)

A fuller arc of strategy: first to 3 Locations. Deck endurance, tempo swings, and late-game payoffs shine here.

Marathon Mode

Iron Caravan (4)

The epic trek: first to 4 Locations. Demands resource discipline, thick skin, and clever recycling.

Head to Head

Duel at Dawn

Only one Location is available at a time. Both bands clash over the same ground—pure tactical knife-fight.

Players Pick

Territory Draft

At reveal, each player chooses one Location to add to the row. Shape the battlefield to your strengths.

Ban Locations

Scorched Map

Before starting, players take turns to ban Locations from the deck. Prune pain points; enable your plan.

Exposed Bases

Exposed Strongholds

Play areas can be attacked. Defend your staging ground—or go straight for theirs. High risk, high chaos.

Plain Locations

Bare Wastes

No Location modifiers. Pure fundamentals: combat math, tempo, and clean scavenging lines.

Campaign Mode

Road to E.D.E.N. (Campaign)

String of PvE scenarios with evolving challenges. Earn rewards to upgrade your warband between missions.
