About the game
Hey there, board game enthusiasts! If you're a fan of Glüx, get ready to spice up your collection with Glüx: Extra Chips. This little gem is a mini-expansion that came straight from the Brettspiel Adventskalender 2017, so you know it's something special and a bit more of a collector's item. The great news is there's no language barrier here – the game is 100% accessible to anyone who already owns the base game.

The original Glüx is already a super cool abstract game involving positioning and area control, and this expansion adds that extra flavor we all love. It brings new elements that will shake up the board's dynamics, forcing you to devise new strategies to dominate areas and outsmart your opponents. The mechanics of influence and grid movement remain at the heart of the gameplay, but with these new pieces or rules, each match promises a renewed challenge.

It's the kind of expansion that doesn't radically change the game but makes a noticeable difference in replayability and tactical depth. If you're already a fan of Glüx and looking for new ways to explore the game, Glüx: Extra Chips is a find worth having. Prepare to think a little harder and perhaps dominate the board in ways you never imagined. It's perfect for those who enjoy abstract games with a strategic twist and a touch of exclusivity.
