About the game
What you do in a play session
JOLT turns magnetic physics into pure fun! Slide magnetic pucks across a mat to land them in high-scoring zones, but here's the twist: before each slide, flip your puck to choose its polarity (positive/negative). This determines how it interacts with other magnets on the board. Right choice? Your puck navigates hazards and steals scoring spots. Wrong choice? It snaps to another magnet, eliminating both! Trap Magnets change positions every game via cards, keeping gameplay fresh. Flip the board for a head-to-head Duel mode when you want more intensity. Win by scoring the most points across three rounds—do you aim for high-risk zones or play safe? Perfect for 2 players aged 8+, JOLT delivers 10 minutes of chaotic magnetic mayhem. Just don't expect deep strategy: the magic is in the unpredictable physics!

Frequently Asked Questions
Quick answers before you buy
Player count?
2 only — it's a magnetic duel game!
Is there solo play?
Nope, the fun lies in unpredictable magnet interactions between players.
Minimum age?
8+ due to motor skills, but adults will laugh harder at magnetic mishaps.
Batteries needed?
None! The magnets are permanent and everything's analog.
Any variability?
The mat flips (normal/Duel modes), and Trap cards change setups every game.
