Totems is a new board game featuring: maps, topology and of course strategy! If you enjoy Risk, Carcassonne, Go, Stratego, or even Uno or Solitaire, you will love the “easy-to-learn, hard-to-master” fun of this game.

@ 148 Apps: “It’s addicting, a pleasure to play, and has earned a permanent spot on my device.”

@ App Advice: “It is heavy on strategy, but light on rules... you will be guaranteed endless amounts of fun.”

@ Pocket Tactics: “Totems manages to challenge some of the basic assumptions of strategy gaming with it’s all-or-nothing take on territory control, while still being simple enough to learn in an afternoon. For that alone, it deserves to plant its standard on your iDevice’s shores.” Score: 5 of 5!

@ App Store: Featured by Apple in "Best New Games!"

GAME DESCRIPTION

The game design is derived from the world-famous “4-Color Map Theorem”. The randomness of the totems in your ‘hand’, the changing colors of the territories, the variety of the maps, and the cleverness of your opponents will all conspire to make each turn a fun and interesting challenge.

The object of the game is to place carved animal pieces (totems) on the map in order to claim territories. Each turn you will place matching totems on adjacent territories to expand your control of the map. The player who conquers the most territories when the map is full, wins. A game of Totems can be finished super-quickly or slowly, depending on your skills and your approach.
