Apex is a 4-player game set in a dystopian future where humanity has resolved to improve their own evolution by implants modifications. The players take the role as bounty hunters, hunting Wanted Dead-or-alive targets and chasing credits around New Alexandria.

The game consists of 8 rounds were each player tries to hunt as much as possible while rebuilding their own bodies to improve their physique in order to collect as much credits as possible.
When a round is over, the round marker is moved and an Event card is drawn that will affect the game for the next round.
