/an-tin-uh-mee/ noun

(A contradiction between two beliefs or conclusions that are in themselves reasonable; a paradox)

As a Sorcerer, you have long sought ancient relics, imbued with magic. What unspeakable power can you unleash when you collect relics from anywhere in the spacetime continuum?

Antinomy is a head to head battle of wits as 2 competing sorcerers in search of powerful Paradox Crystals. Play a single card from your hand using the color or symbol to dive into the past, or use the number to fly into the future. The card you land on gets swapped with the card you played allowing you to build up a winning hand. Wherever you go, clever card play and a set of 3-of-a-kind cause paradoxes forming crystals of your own. Or confront your opponent in a Clash to wrest control of their crystals. Collecting 5 of these crystals will ensure your control over space and time. Do you have what it takes to wield the power of Antinomy?

Adam ★★★★★

The theme of paradox is baked right into the gameplay loop, and the rulebook does a great job explaining it in under ten minutes. Every decision feels like a clever contradiction, and the tiny footprint means I can set it up on my coffee table in seconds.

Daniel ★★★★★

Finally, a game that lives up to its name—the paradox of chasing relics while knowing they're dangerous is brilliantly captured in the rules. I love how the tiny card count forces tough decisions every single turn, and the solo mode has surprising depth for something that fits in my pocket.
