About the game

What you do in a play session

If you're a Doctor Who fan and enjoy the delightful chaos of Fluxx, get ready for another time-traveling adventure with the Doctor Who Fluxx: 13th Doctor Expansion! This little gem brings the charismatic 13th Doctor into your game, along with characters who accompany her on this wild journey through the universe. As with any good Fluxx game, the rules can change at any moment, and the objective is always the same: be the first to achieve whatever is currently in play. This expansion adds new cards that blend into the main deck, introducing fresh twists and challenges. It's the perfect addition for those looking to spice up their Doctor Who Fluxx games, especially if you're fond of the 13th Doctor's era. Remember that, like most Fluxx expansions, it focuses on adding more cards and themes without drastically altering the core mechanics we already know and love (or hate, depending on the day!). If you already own the base game and are a fan of the series, this is an almost mandatory addition to expand your options and keep the games consistently unpredictable and fun. Prepare to collect the right sets and adapt to the new rules that pop up!

Fluxx games are typically for 2 to 6 players, and this expansion keeps that count, so you can invite the whole gang!
How long does a game usually take?
Fluxx games are quick, usually lasting between 5 to 30 minutes. Perfect for a fast round or to extend a bit if the game is getting exciting.
Is it very complicated to learn?
If you already know Fluxx, you'll pick it up quickly. If not, the core mechanic is simple, but the rules change so much that the complexity comes from constant adaptation!
Does the expansion add many new components?
It adds new cards that are shuffled into the main deck. Don't expect extra meeples or boards; it's all focused on the cards and the rules they bring.
Is this expansion good for someone who doesn't know Doctor Who?
If you don't know Doctor Who, you might enjoy the crazy mechanics of Fluxx. However, the fun of collecting sets and understanding the references is much greater if you're a fan of the series.
Do the cards need translation?
