Description

Get ready to shake things up in the world of Rockwell with the Explosion Cards expansion. Designed by Bruno Crépeault, this 2013 release adds a thrilling layer of challenge and excitement to the base game, perfect for 2 to 4 players looking to take their experience to the next level. With a playtime of 90 minutes, you'll have plenty of time to navigate the modular board, manage your workers, and exert your influence to come out on top. The game's normal complexity makes it easy for board game enthusiasts to jump right in, but be warned: the Explosion Cards are not for the faint of heart. These 8 explosive cards were initially introduced as a Kickstarter stretch goal and made a splash at Spiel 2013, and now they're ready to blow up your gameplay. When triggered during extraction, an explosion will send a driller's power level plummeting, throwing a wrench into even the best-laid plans. If you're looking for an extra dose of danger and challenge, the Explosion Cards are the perfect addition to your Rockwell experience. With categories like economic, exploration, and industry/manufacturing at play, you'll need to be strategic and adaptable to succeed. Will you be able to navigate the risks and come out on top, or will the explosions blow your chances to smithereens? There's only one way to find out.
