About the game

What you do in a play session

If you're already a fan of Blue Moon and looking to spice up your games, this expansion, The Flit, is for you! It brings 30 brand-new cards to add some extra flavor to your duels. The characters in The Flit have an interesting mechanic where they are retrievable, meaning you can get your key cards back into your hand more easily. And for those who love explosive combos, there's the ability to pair up 'boosters' to create attacks that will make your opponent sweat.

This expansion doesn't change the base game but adds an extra layer of strategy with these new card options. It's that classic Reiner Knizia feel, you know? A two-player game, quick, with important decisions to make each turn. If you enjoy managing your hand of cards like a pro and like game-changing powers, The Flit will give you another reason to return to Blue Moon. The art and fantasy theme remain strong, so it's more of the same, just better and with more variety. It's the kind of expansion you play once and immediately want to test out all the new combinations.
