Chicanery
A game inspired by Diplomacy but with its own identity.
Overview
Chicanery is a multiplayer strategy game with simultaneous turns following the turn/phase format of Diplomacy and using traditional Diplomacy unit combat mechanics. For a thorough understanding of that game, see the online multiplayer implementation linked here: webDiplomacy. Chicanery notably diverges from Diplomacy in several aspects—see the wiki for more—but aims to maintain the same core theme: emergent player interactions via negotiation (backstabbing your friends and starting fist-fights over a tabletop game from the ’50s). Your fundamental objective remains to dominate the map by outwitting your friends.
