About Rock Beats Rock

“Wanna play with these cool rocks we found? We'll make up a game together!”

In Rock Beats Rock, sit down and join the childlike Meeples as they create a game out of the rocks found during their previous adventures. 

Gather pebbles and exchange them for even cooler rocks from the Card Shark to compete in having the best rock collection. Change the rules of game play using rules cards, or shake things up by playing ruckus cards.

Will you build the most impressive rock collection… or ruin your opponent’s plans first?

CHANGE THE RULES

Play Rule Cards to change up the match as you go.

Boost certain rocks, twist scoring, create strange new win conditions, and force your opponent to adapt on the fly. No two games stay the same for long!

PLAY SOLO OR WITH FRIENDS

Challenge the computer in single-player mode, or your friends in 1v1 multiplayer mode.

CAUSE RUCKUS

Use Ruckus Cards to stir up trouble.

Sabotage your opponent’s collection, disrupt their strategy, steal momentum, and shake up the game and create trouble when your opponent least expects it.

TRADE WITH THE CARD SHARK

Collect Pebbles during your turn and spend them on new cards from the Card Shark’s rotating stock.

Prices drop over time, but wait too long and unsold cards get replaced.

BUILD YOUR COLLECTION

Play Rock Cards into Show & Tell to proudly display your best finds.

Some rocks sparkle. Some have lots of points. Some work best with special rules. Decorate your rocks using ruckus cards, mind the rules, and maybe you’ll win this time.
