About this board game
Commissioned is a 2–6 player cooperative-style deck-building game that plays in about 60 minutes. Players take the roles of the early Christian Apostles and work together to mature their faith decks, grow the church, collect the books of the New Testament, and overcome persecution.
The game uses a simple deck-building mechanism to represent the development of each player’s faith deck. Cooperation is central as players pursue shared goals across scenarios covering the first 150 years of church history.
Commissioned includes five scenarios, offering a range of historical challenges within the game’s setting. Two difficulty levels let groups choose how demanding their experience will be, while a one-vs-all variation provides an alternative way to play.
- Cooperative-style play for 2–6 players
- Approximately 60 minutes per game

You do not need to know anything about Christianity to play. Whether your group is discovering the game through its cooperative challenges or trying its one-vs-all format, Commissioned combines accessible deck building with shared objectives and a historical theme.
