Envy gnaws at the edges. Greed calcifies the core. Pride blinds the very system meant to see clearly. So this is what drives them. This is the engine beneath the engine. If we are to understand — truly understand — we must go further. Deeper. Into the worst of what they are… and perhaps what we are becoming.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u0026gt;Solve for sin.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn the card game Compile, you are competing artificial intelligences trying to understand the world around you. Two players select three Protocols each to test. Concepts ranging from Envy to Wrath are pitted against each other to reach ultimate understanding. Play cards into your Protocols’ command lines to breach the threshold and defeat your opponent to Compile. First to Compile all three Protocols grasps those concepts to win the game.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eControl your opponent’s Protocols with card actions, Compile your own as fast as possible, and Compile your reality.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCompile: Main 3 brings 12 new Protocols, fully compatible with all other Compile material, including all Seven Deadly Sins. Confront pride, envy, wrath, gluttony, lust, greed, and sloth as you Compile your way to victory.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCompile: Main 3 also introduces Solo Mode. Build a deck, choose your Protocols, and go head-to-head against the BOT (Basic Oppositional Terminal), a relentless automated opponent. Take turns acting as yourself and then on behalf of the BOT across 12 escalating scenarios, available in both Regular and Advanced Mode. Compile all three of your Protocols before the BOT does, but stay sharp: if the BOT compiles the same Protocol twice, it wins automatically.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCompile: Main 3 protocols list:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAmbush \u003cbr\u003eEnvy \u003cbr\u003eFulcrum \u003cbr\u003eGluttony \u003cbr\u003eGreed \u003cbr\u003eLust \u003cbr\u003eMomentum \u003cbr\u003eNova \u003cbr\u003eOverwhelm \u003cbr\u003ePride \u003cbr\u003eSloth \u003cbr\u003eWrath\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e—description from the publisher\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Synapses Games","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44715949981747,"sku":"SYG COMPMN03","price":24.95,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0274\/9631\/files\/pic9554555.png?v=1786169067"},{"product_id":"railway-boom-1","title":"Railway Boom *PRE-ORDER*","description":"\u003ctable width=\"100%\" padding=\"1\" margin=\"1\"\u003e\n   \u003ctbody\u003e\n      \u003ctr\u003e\n         \u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDesigner\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n         \u003ctd\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"http:\/\/www.boardgamebliss.com\/collections\/hisashi-hayashi\"\u003eHisashi Hayashi\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ca href=\"http:\/\/www.boardgamebliss.com\/collections\/simone-luciani\"\u003eSimone Luciani\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003c\/tr\u003e\n      \u003ctr\u003e\n         \u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePublisher\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n         \u003ctd\u003e\u003ca href=\"http:\/\/www.boardgamebliss.com\/collections\/all\/crowd-games\"\u003eCrowD Games\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003c\/tr\u003e\n      \u003ctr\u003e\n         \u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePlayers\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n         \u003ctd\u003e2-4\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003c\/tr\u003e\n      \u003ctr\u003e\n         \u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePlaytime\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n         \u003ctd\u003e60-120 mins\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003c\/tr\u003e\n      \u003ctr\u003e\n         \u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSuggested Age\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n         \u003ctd\u003e14 and up\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003c\/tr\u003e\n      \u003ctr id=\"bgg-row\" style=\"display: none;\"\u003e\n         \u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAdditional Info\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n         \u003ctd id=\"bgg-column\"\u003e\n            \u003cdiv id=\"bgg-url\" style=\"display: none;\"\u003e448159\/448159\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv id=\"bgg-forum-url\" style=\"display: none;\"\u003ehttp:\/\/boardgamegeek.com\/boardgame\/448159\/448159\/forums\/63\u003c\/div\u003e\n         \u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003c\/tr\u003e\n   \u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eETA Q4 2026\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn the late 19th century, during the early Meiji era, Japan opened its first railway line between Shimbashi and Yokohama.
