About the game
What you do in a play session
What's new? Ignition features shorter road boards, meaning the action starts quickly and ends before anyone loses patience. But don't think it's easier: we now have curved roads that require more precision and new terrain types, such as rubble and barricades, turning the track into a genuine battlefield. You'll manage your dice to move your vehicle, attack, and try not to turn into scrap metal in the process.
Versatility is a highlight: Ignition works perfectly as a standalone game, ideal for those who want to enter the franchise without investing in everything at once. However, if you already own Vendetta, you can use it as an expansion to add more variety and new challenges to your races. It's the kind of game where the luck of the dice blends with the malice of knowing exactly when to deliver a 'take that' move to the friend next to you.
Prepare yourself for risky maneuvers, brutal collisions, and the constant feeling that victory is just one dice roll away. It's a racing game with combat, miniatures, and high interaction, perfect for those seeking fast but intense matches where the strategy is to survive the chaos while trying to cross the finish line first.
