Trap and Turn

About

Trap and Turn is a turn-based strategy game where you guide a team across a grid. Players alternate moving units, deploying traps, and targeting enemies. Resource management is key as you balance placing obstacles with advancing your position. Combat resolves through dice rolls modified by positioning and trap placement. The board fills up quickly as both sides lay mines and create dead zones. This 1993 title remains notable for its tight mechanics despite limited hardware. Its focus on spatial reasoning and risk-reward decisions has earned it a cult following among retro strategy fans. With no modern re-releases, original Mega Duck/Cougar Boy copies are highly sought after by collectors. The game's simple design hides deep tactical possibilities that still hold up in playtests.
