It’s an innovation that could make farmers like Joan’s Grandp...

The Who, What, Why?

The game is simple. There are 3 dice: red, white, and blue. Players use these dice to assign actions to their robot (shoot and move). The dice are resolved from lowest to highest in red, white, and blue order, which adds an excellent level of unpredictability to the game. While players might be able to plan their moves, they cannot know how their opponents will mess up their plans. Volt is being reprinted by a German company with...

One player takes on the role of the agent whose goal is to sabotage 3 of the 4 potential sites on the board while evading the other players who play as hunters. This sounds easy for the agent except that the agent has to successfully escape the board after completing his or her mission. Each turn the agent moves secretly (marking down his or her movement on a sheet of paper), and the hunters h...
