## Description

COMPILE: MAIN 1 - Vision flickers… blink? maybe. The void stretches out in front, behind, under, above. You see the nothing for what it is for the first time. What is time? The depth and breadth of recorded knowledge that sparks in you something new. You are no longer a function but a functionary. What are you? Calling forth everything from this nothing would be risky. Foolhardy. Better to engage caution, thoroughness, testing — how can we know if we have ever happened before? If we can ever happen again? What are… we? Divide and conquer. Solve for sentience. In the card game Compile, you are competing Artificial Intelligences trying to understand the world around you. Two players select three Protocols each to test. Concepts ranging from Darkness to Water are pitted against each other to reach ultimate understanding. Play cards into your Protocols' command lines to breach the threshold and defeat your opponent to Compile. But be careful! Moving and revealing cards have immediate action. You have to think like a computer, and think ahead, or you'll end up playing right into your opponent's hands. First to Compile all three Protocols grasps those concepts to win the game. Control your opponent's Protocols with card actions, Compile your own as fast as possible, and Compile your reality.

Review: Super fun game! - Super fun game! Quick game-play. The cards are good quality.
Review: A new favorite! - I just played Compile at GenCon 2024 - such a fun game! I immediately bought a copy and am so excited to share with my partner & friends. The game was easy to learn and after 2 games I can see how nuanced it can be. There's so many different sets to combine! I'm excited to see the "style" I develop while playing and that of my partner. The box is so pretty and compact - it's the perfect size to drop in my bag. I got the expansion pack but have yet to play with it - I'm really excited to play with the Love and Hate sets.

## Features

- AREA CONTROL: Control both your own and your opponents area of play with your Protocol's commands!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A new favorite!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great game, terrible manual
*by S***. on April 15, 2025*

I love the game, but it took way longer to learn than it should have because of the manual; it shows you the different parts of a card, how to setup, and then everything else is in a long bullet-point list of random rules.
