CiRKiTRY

3–5 players · 30 min · 12+

In CiRKiTRY, players have been invited to a local electronics competition. Your goal is to create a electronic circuit that uses all 5 of the following components: a Battery, a Resistor, an Inductor, a Capacitor, and an LED bulb. However, to make things more difficult, everyone will be competing on the same circuit board.

Players take turns uncovering circuit board tiles and placing their electronic components along the conductive paths. But be careful! The Voltage on the Volt-a-Meter fluctuates as components are played. If the Voltage gets raised too high, you might cause a destructive power surge.

Use Solder pieces to create pathways and make new connections. Not all 5 of the electronic components need to be your own, and you can attempt to piggyback off of your opponents' placement.

CiRKiTRY does not require prior knowledge of electronic engineering to play.
