Description

Fire in the Library is a thrilling press-your-luck game where you'll need to balance risk and reward to rescue books and accumulate knowledge. With simple rules that can be explained quickly, 1 to 6 players can jump into the action, navigating the challenges of a burning library in just 15 to 30 minutes. Each round brings a new level of excitement, as earlier players take on more risk but have a chance at a higher reward. As you play, you'll start with tools to help manage your luck, and you can gain more by taking calculated risks or playing it safe. But be warned, the game ends abruptly when any one wing of the library is completely engulfed in flames. Will you be the bravest and save the most books, or will you play it safe and exit early? Take your chances and find out in Fire in the Library.
