Description

In Light Speed: Arena, a game designed by James Ernest, Tom Jolly, Leonardo Alese, and Emanuele Santellani, you'll experience the thrill of real-time action and competitive fun for 1 to 4 players. This science fiction themed game is easy to learn, with simple rules that can be explained quickly, making it accessible to new players. A typical game lasts just 5 to 15 minutes, but don't let the short playtime fool you - the combination of variable player powers, tile placement, and area control mechanics creates a highly engaging and fast-paced experience. With elements of fighting and action, players must think and act quickly to outmaneuver their opponents and claim victory. The game also features a unique elapsed real-time ending, adding an extra layer of excitement to each match, and with the option to expand with the Promo Sponsored Asteroids pack, there's always something new to look forward to in this 2025 release.
