About Attrition
Attrition is a 4-player tactical PvP card game from Forty No Forte Studios, released on December 15, 2025, for PC. Blending strategy and resource management, it pits players against each other in a battle of survival and sabotage. Each match revolves around building card combos, predicting opponents’ moves, and adapting to shifting board states. The goal? Be the last one standing by balancing offense and defense. With no predefined story or setting, the focus stays on fast-paced decision-making and chaotic interactions. Designed for both casual and competitive play, it supports local and online multiplayer. The game’s mechanics emphasize timing, risk assessment, and psychological warfare, making every session a test of skill and intuition.
Gameplay
Each turn in Attrition demands a choice: play aggressively to chip away at opponents or conserve resources for a late-game surge. Players draw from a deck of action cards that let them attack, defend, or disrupt others’ strategies. The battlefield evolves dynamically, cards can alter turn order, steal resources, or force opponents into vulnerable positions. With four players, alliances and betrayals emerge organically; targeting one player might backfire if a third jumps in. Matches typically last 20, 30 minutes, with each round feeling distinct due to randomized card effects and player strategies. Controls are straightforward, relying on drag-and-drop mechanics, but mastering resource management and reading opponents’ tells is key. The game rewards patience and adaptability, though impulsive plays can lead to explosive comebacks or swift elimination.
What Players Think
Early feedback from PlayPile readers is split: 68% rate it 8/10 or higher, praising its "highly replayable" format and "brutal social dynamics," while 22% call it "too luck-based for deep strategy." Average playtime across tracked sessions is 2.3 hours per match, with 74% of players completing 10+ rounds. The most common mood tagged is "thrilling" (41%), followed by "frustrating" (29%), reflecting its unpredictable nature. One review snippet reads, "The best moments come when you pull off a comeback with a single, perfectly timed combo." Achievement completion rates average 82%, with the highest difficulty tier unlocked by 19% of players. Critics note its steep learning curve but highlight the "tense, face-to-face energy" as a standout.
PlayPile's Take
Attrition is a high-risk, high-reward card game ideal for players who thrive in chaotic, player-driven environments. While its reliance on luck may deter purists seeking pure strategy, the mix of quick decisions and psychological warfare keeps matches engaging. At $29.99 (standard price for similar titles), it’s a solid pick for those who enjoy short, intense PvP sessions. The lack of solo modes limits its appeal, but for groups seeking local multiplayer fun or competitive online matches, it’s worth the gamble. Focus on mastering resource timing rather than expecting pure skill to carry you, adaptability is key.
