About the game
You know that feeling when you think you've finally mastered the chaos of Hyperstar Run and everything is going perfectly? Well, the enemies have decided that was way too much fun and have set some traps! The Trapped expansion introduces a layer of tension that can turn a winning combo into a frantic struggle for survival in just a few moves. With only 6-cards, this expansion packs a punch, adding-facedown-level cards that act as landmines for your progress.

The gameplay loop gets much more nerve-wracking: as you build your combos, you might stumble upon a trap card. The twist? It's not all bad news. Sometimes, revealing a trap might actually extend your combo, but more often than not, it triggers a-trap-and-boom! You might face an immediate negative effect or be forced to battle a new enemy before you can move forward. It’s all about that high-stakes-risk-versus-reward-feeling. If you love fast-paced, solo-friendly-micro-games where every card flip could be your downfall or your salvation, Trapped is a must-have-add-on for your Hyperstar Run-collection!
