## Description
Smash Up: World Tour – Culture Shock is the expansion that takes you on a cultural world tour, adding five new factions full of personality. In Russia, minions are constantly transforming, while in West Africa, sharing stories (and cards) is the key to victory. Germany rewards those who unite characters from the same tales, and the Inca Empire brings strategies based on its famous roads and architecture. As for the Polynesians? They're busy colonizing as many islands as possible! Compatible with all previous expansions, Culture Shock keeps the signature madness of Smash Up, where mixing factions creates unpredictable and hilarious combinations. Get ready to manage your hand, interfere with others' plans, and explore unique abilities in matches that last around 45 to 60 minutes on average.
