## Description
Hey board game fans! Ready to upgrade your Railroad Ink experience? The Electricity Expansion Pack is here to bring more light and power to your games! This cool addition introduces two exclusive expansion packs: the "Street Lamp" and the "Power Grid." With the "Street Lamp" pack, you'll use two new dice to build street lamps and maybe even generators, illuminating your board and racking up points in a brand-new way. The "Power Grid" pack comes with another two special dice that challenge you to connect your exits to the central accumulator, charging it with electricity and multiplying your bonus points. It's like giving the base game a jolt of novelty! The main goal remains the same: connect as many exits as possible on your board by drawing roads and railways. But now, with these extra dice, the scoring possibilities multiply. If you enjoy the addictive simplicity of Railroad Ink and want an extra spice for your solo sessions or games with friends (up to 4 players!), this expansion is a perfect fit. It keeps the playtime quick (15-30 minutes) and the complexity accessible (weight 2/5), but adds strategic layers that will make you think twice before drawing that line. It's the right choice for those who want to extend the lifespan of the base game and explore new ways to shine (literally!).
