About Grudge Isle

The idea

The best part of a trading board game was never the dice. It's the table: the friend who sulks when you refuse a deal, the one who swears they have no wheat, the alliance against whoever's winning. Grudge Isle tries to put that into the AI players. Turn down Otto twice and he'll remember. So will the robber.

How the rivals work

Each rival has two parts. One decides what to do: where to build, what to trade, who to rob. It reads the board, its own hand and its feelings about each player. The other decides what to say: pitches, haggling, reactions, bluffs and trash talk, written fresh for the moment and in that rival's voice. Grudges link the two, so a rival who's angry with you plays you differently and tells you why.

The rivals see only what a player at a real table could see. Hidden hands stay hidden.
