About the game

What you do in a play session

Claim: Reinforcements – Fire is the first expansion for the Claim series, introducing a fresh scenario where fire elementals escape from the darkest depths in search of a path to the mortal realm. Throughout the game these elementals clash with demons, tricksters and poisoners, each delivering powerful surprises that shake both players' strategies. The core mechanic remains trick‑taking, now flavored with themed cards that add panic, flame and poison effects, demanding quick decisions and hand‑management tactics. Like the base game, it runs fast—about 25 minutes per play, with a light 1/5 weight, perfect for a casual yet replayable experience. The main components are illustrated card decks that blend with the original set, letting you play with the full deck or just the new cards for a shorter bout. Visual design leans heavily on reds and oranges, reinforcing a fiery atmosphere, while the elemental artwork adds epic flair to the duel. Although an expansion, it doesn’t require deep knowledge of the base game; mastering the trick‑taking rules gets you into the blazing chaos right away. In short, Fire adds extra drama, with cards that can flip the outcome in an instant, while preserving the competitive spirit and casual fun that made Claim a hit for two‑player duels.
