Fluxx - The Board Game

Fluxx – The Board Game lives up to its card game namesake as this boardgame is all about change: changing rules, changing goals, and changing tiles onthe board.

Players start the game with their three pieces in the center of a 3×3 gridof tiles, with each tile divided into four spaces and each space showing an iconof some type (chocolate, sun, cookies, etc.) or an octagon or a portal. Playerseach start with three cards in hand, and the overall goal of the game is tocollect 3–6 goal cards, with the exact number possibly changingduring play.

On a turn, a player draws one card, plays one card, then moves one space,with all of those values being subject to change during gameplay; depending onwhat's currently allowed by the rules, you can also use movement points torotate or move tiles in the play area. If you have a piece on each icon shown onthe topmost goal card in play, you claim that card and are that much closer towinning. Players can also claim goal cards they have in hand by, again, placingtheir pieces on the appropriate icons. Other cards in the game allow players tochange the rules, the game board, the ownership of player pieces, andso on.
