About the game

What you do in a play session

If you are already a fan of Verflixxt! (or That's Life!) and feel like the table is getting a bit crowded or the game needs a little extra kick, the 'Verflixxt nochmal!' expansion is exactly what you need. This box doesn't just add content; it expands the strategic possibilities and the chaotic fun we all love. First off, the game now includes pieces for two additional players, allowing up to 8 people to join in on the frantic race for points and desperate escapes from negative tiles. This completely shifts the game's dynamics, making every decision much tighter and the atmosphere significantly more lively.

Beyond the player count increase, the pack brings four new track tiles, allowing you to build different paths and refresh the visual and tactical challenge. But the real game-changer is the introduction of elements like the Flixxy bird figure and the numbered discs ranging from +1 to +4, which add extra layers of scoring and risk. We also can't forget the 10 new worm tiles, bringing that classic touch of luck and misfortune typical of the series. The included action die is also a welcome addition, injecting an extra dose of unpredictability that might save your turn or ruin everything at the last second.

Overall, 'Verflixxt nochmal!' doesn't try to reinvent the wheel, but it does an excellent job of giving new life to the original game. It is an expansion that respects the simplicity and lightness of the base title while ensuring no one gets bored. If you usually gather friends to play and always run out of seats, or if you just want to see how these new pieces interact with the board you already know, you can go for it without hesitation. It is the kind of expansion that, once added, you will rarely want to leave out of the box when setting up a game. Get ready for more laughs, more friendly banter, and, of course, much more Flixxy involved in your gaming session.
