Game Overview
There Will Be Ink is a difficult tactical action game for 1-8 players. Play solo or with friends in battles between stick figure armies on a paper notepad, just like you used to draw in class instead of paying attention! TWBI is a difficult game, where charging forward into the fray will rarely win a battle. Assessing the battlefield, taking cover as needed, and keeping an eye on troop positions are all essential for winning the day. Or, if that sounds like a chore, switch to “Arcade Mode” and run & gun at will!
Game Features:
- Fast-paced tactical gameplay with a focus on cover
- Take control of any friendly unit on the battlefield
