Build smart. Outplay your rivals.

Turn clever components into working machines in BOLT RIVALS, a construction-themed card game for 2–4 players aged 10+.

Collect motors, gears, frames and moving parts, then arrange your cards to match a blueprint. Connect the sockets, check your power and put your creation to the test. Every completed machine earns stars—and an exact power match earns a bonus!

Clever building. Competitive choices.

With up to two actions each turn, every decision matters. Will you collect a useful component, build your machine, adjust a tricky connection or change your plans? Work towards your own blueprint or race to finish a shared project before another player claims it.

Why you’ll enjoy BOLT RIVALS

• Logic and spatial thinking: work out how parts fit together and which way to turn them.

• Maths with a purpose: balance motor power against the demand of your components.

• Meaningful strategy: choose when to build, adjust, collect or test.

• Friendly rivalry: compete for shared blueprints and the highest score.

• Construction through cards: build machines using illustrated cards in a compact tuck box.
