Thirst is a 4 player card game that tackles the urgent issue of water scarcity through engaging, strategy-focused gameplay. Players race to outbuild one another: developing infrastructure, managing limited resources, and adapting to unpredictable card draws. The goal? Secure the most water for your community before the supply runs dry.

Gameplay is driven by the tension between long-term strategy and short-term survival. Players draw from a shared deck to gather resources, take actions, and respond to shifting conditions, forcing them to constantly adapt their tactics. Negotiation and trading can tip the scales, but so can a well-timed card or a sudden drought.
