From the Publisher

Take command of a rifle platoon from the US or German Army, striving across a series of missions to claim and hold key objectives in the weeks that followed the D-Day landings.
Play through a series of scenarios, each featuring different landscapes of tiles that you will have to master in order to control the objectives, gain advantageous positions, and claim victory.
Use your cards to control your troops on the battlefield, but be warned: every casualty on the field removes a card from your deck, limiting your options and leaving you at the mercy of your opponent.

Review
One of the most unique games I’ve played in a long time. -- Tom Vasel ― The Dice Tower
Undaunted is a brilliantly accomplished design, offering an engrossing WWII wargame in the guise of an approachable deckbuilder. From its immersive campaign to its tight and tense squad-level gameplay, it’s a flying success -- Matt Jarvis ― Tabletop Gaming Magazine
The abstraction of infantry combat with deckbuilding is a stroke of genius, leaving a tactically and strategically rich game -- Matt Thrower ― There Will Be Games
Undaunted: Normandy is by far the best wargame I've played in a long time... This is not just the kind of game that I love, it is the kind of game that the hobby needs! ― Marco Omnigamer
I really think it's a fun, great system. There's a certain elegance to the gameplay, which is a term that is thrown around a lot but you know darn it this really works here -- Joel Eddy ― Drive Thru Games
For me, this is going to be one of my top games of 2019 ― Rolling Dice & Taking Names
This is the perfect marriage of mechanics and theme and fun. This is a fantastic game, I cannot recommend it enough. -- Cody Carlson ― The Discriminating Gamer

Great simple to play wargame

- Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 11 September 2021I bloody love this game. It's a great price for the amount of replayability and hours you can get out of it. I love the art of the box and the cards, I love the overall aesthetic of it all.
The game mechanics themself are really well thought out and it doesn't take so long to play your turn that your opponent will get bored, making it also very attractive to people that will have never played it before.
Talking of new players, the rules are simple enough that it wouldn't take but 10 minutes to explain to someone how to play the game, maybe even less if you just show them along the way, and they won't feel like they're missing out on anything either since all the actions you can take are clearly listed and they can easily refer to the rule book if they want to check something. This game is also so easy to remember how to play that you won't probably won't need the rulebook yourself, but on the flip side, it's not so easy in the fact that you actually have to think about your moves and strategies to win. It's a perfect mix of complication, enough so, that it won't scare of people from giving the game a try.
There's only one downside to this whole game really, and that's luck, but most board games have an element of luck in them, it's upto you whether the luck of a dice is going to ruin the board game for you or your friends.
Anyway, it's a 5/5 from me. A keeper for many years I think.
- Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 10 October 2021Excellent value for money. Sturdy box and nice components.
Played a lot of wargames and this one is really good with easy rules and Plenty to think about Plenty of different missions to choose from which play from around 30 minutes to and hour or so. Recommended.
- Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 7 January 2022I bought this along with reinforcements to play mainly solo. Haven’t even started on the expansion yet but Normandy seems like a solid game and very easy to play solo. The rules are nice and easy to understand my first game learning the rules and setup took about an hour or a little more but I can see that being much quicker once you don’t have to refer to the book for the keywords. I can see this coming to the table often as it’s nice and easy to play and set up and especially with the rules not being super complicated like most war games.

- Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 27 November 2023Very enjoyable game, simply to pick up and play, will have moments off pure bliss when you get a few good rolls and wipe out your oppo, or have tears in the eyes when you lose a few German comrades. Either way a nice way to pass the time.
- Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 16 July 2021Squad movement a bit too artificial and squad player changes too random, However an interesting game with an unusual and enjoyable game play. Quick too, so good for a best out of three..... A beer and pretzels version of Up Front.
- Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 20 October 2024Game is fun with strategic depth and quality components.
The rules aren't great, would suggest watching a video.
- Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 23 April 2023My partner is interested in all things WW2 and I interested in all things board games so this was a perfect combination. We both really enjoy playing this game and have yet to work our way through all of the different scenes. It is easily one of our top choices of board games at the moment.
- Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 2 August 2024Ace, can't stop playing. A must play game.

5.0 out of 5 stars Çok detaylı
Ürünün senaryo kitabını okuyunca oyunun kalitesini daha iyi anlıyorsunuz. Kullanılan malzemeler de çok iyi. Umarım expansion görevler daha uygun fiyata gelir.

5.0 out of 5 stars My new favorite game!
I love this game and it has become a new family favorite. Plays in an hour or less depending on the scenario. The recommended age is 14+, however my 9 year old loves it and has a good understanding of tactics. Even my 7 year old, while not understanding the nuances of the game, understands the basic gameplay and enjoys it.
Highly recommend if you like games such as Memoir 44
My kids are already asking for the two expansions for Christmas.
- Vraja CarrReviewed in the United States on 23 December 2020
5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent two player strategy that plays in 30-60 minutes!
A super clean and deceptively strategic war-game, Undaunted: Normandy is a top-notch two player game. Pitting Germans vs Americans in a dozen different WW2 scenarios with varying goals, you can easily play through as one side, then switch and play through all 12 scenarios again with quite a different experience.
The game can be learned in about 10 minutes. You’ll setup map tiles according to the scenario book, then give each side their starting area and units. This won’t be the same for each side which is where the variety comes in. However all the units function the same on each side which makes it easy to tell the state of the board at a glance, or what everyone’s soldiers or snipers do.
Area control is usually the name of the game in most scenarios, but some have fun objectives such as the germans having to kill all the american rifleman to win, while the americans have to capture a control point at the far side of an open field.
I found the game to be tense and balanced so far in every scenario. We’ve taken turns winning across various maps and each one came down to a final turn or action before the other could or would have won. While there is dice rolling involved for attacking, all other actions simply take place without dice or interference. This is probably my only knock on the game, as being a victim of bad rolls can simply lose you the game, such as failing to kill a soldier 5 times in a row. However this is simultaneously thematic, as war is hectic. Thematically the game feels amazing and just plays really smoothly and organically. Everything makes sense and my buddy and I love the flow of deck, hand, discard and supply. He said “Playing this round was both depressing and exciting, just like war itself.”
I’ve been playing much bigger or longer games that take 2-4 hours per session, but wanted something more accessible. We are usually done Normandy in an hour including setup and teardown for one scenario. Love it!

4.0 out of 5 stars Good
I don’t know from where the package was sent but It wasn’t a very quick delivery. However it came here fine and the box was intact and without any dents.

5.0 out of 5 stars ノルマンディーに上陸したい
このゲームは面白い。世代的に戦争映画を見てきているので、このテーマは最高ですね。
デッキ構築の要素があり、サイコロ運もあるので、誰でも楽しめます。
何処から攻めようかと考え、成功すると気分が良いですね。
