Overview

V:ALIGN is a competitive turn-based strategy game that fuses card play with tactical board control. Developed by Iron Gorgonops and published by CONTROL POINT, this 2D title launched on November 6, 2026, and is available on Steam.

The core loop is simple to grasp but offers layers of depth: you place cards on an open grid, aim for scoring combinations, and use special effects to disrupt your opponent's plans.

Highlights

  • Hybrid Gameplay: Combines card battler mechanics with board game-style positioning, creating a unique strategic experience.
  • WALL Spaces: Certain placements create WALL spaces that the opposing player cannot use, letting you reshape the board and limit their options.
  • KOI-KOI Risk System: After completing a scoring combination, you can choose to bank your points or declare KOI-KOI to continue the round—pressing your luck for a bigger payoff while risking a comeback by your opponent.

Who It's For

If you enjoy turn-based tactics, card games, or board games with a competitive edge, V:ALIGN should be on your radar. The game supports both single-player and multiplayer modes, so you can practice against AI or challenge other players in PvP matches.

The sci-fi setting adds a thematic layer that fans of futuristic strategy titles will appreciate.
