Where it came from
Barrage was released in 2019 following a successful crowdfunding campaign, emerging as a centerpiece of the heavy Eurogame movement. Designed by Simone Luciani and Tommaso Battista, the game is set in an industrial, alternative-history 1930s where players compete to manage hydroelectric power production in a resource-strained landscape. It was created to challenge players with complex logistics, requiring the strategic placement of dams and the management of water flow across a shared, multi-tiered board.
The visual design, characterized by its stark, utilitarian aesthetic, was handled by Antonio De Luca to reinforce the game's theme of industrial ambition. Upon release, the game garnered significant critical acclaim for its intricate economic engine and high player interaction, specifically for how the shared water supply mechanics force competitive interdependence. It remains a notable example of modern complex board game design, frequently cited for its steep learning curve and rewarding strategic depth.
