The Omen games are a series of two player card games set in mythic Greece (and the Mediterranean).  Each Omen game in this series is a small footprint, standalone card game of competing half-god siblings bent on sacking three Cities and impressing the Olympian Gods.  Illustrated by Aaron Nakahara and designed by John Clowdus.

​.........

In Omen, players alternate taking turns gaining and spending Coins to play Unit cards, each with their own unique effects, to their side of three different Cities (each comprised of two City/Krater cards) to trigger effects and sack the Cities; vying to the winner by having the most points when the game ends.

​

When a City is Sacked, the player with the most Strength in that City gains one of that City's Krater cards, which is worth two points in the player's hand, but also has its own powerful effect if a player chooses to break it, reducing its point value to one. When both of a City's Kraters have been claimed, that City is Razed. When all three Cities are Razed, the game ends and players score points for the Krater Cards and Coveted Units in their hand, as well as the broken Krater Cards and facedown Triumph Units in their Rewards.

​

Rushing to Sack the Cities, playing towards completing Triumphs, and hopefully hoarding Coveted Units in your hand; Omen offers several paths to scoring points and impressing the deathless, watching Olympians.
