Read the full game description

Vienna places rival intelligence agencies in the divided Austrian capital of the 1950s. Players queue multi-use cards to deploy agents, obtain money and equipment, influence locations, and collect classified information from a modular map. The order of those cards matters as much as their individual effects, while enclosure, speculation, and contested spaces create shifting tactical pressure. A streamlined introductory mode teaches the network, and the full game adds missions, money, and advanced modules for a deeper Stefan Feld design.
