Description

A futuristic game show where the contestants fight for their very lives. Trapped in an arena, your runner moves to earn the most credits, while simultaneously pinning opponents into the corners of the Pressure Matrix, where they cannot move. As the game goes on, the pressure mounts as your runner moves faster and faster, with fewer and fewer options. The game ends with the last man standing.

Pressure Matrix is a clever, fast-paced strategy game for 2 to 5 players. With multiple levels of play, random tile placement, and sinister opponents, there is no end to the PRESSURE MATRIX.

Components:

  • 50 two-sided matrix tiles
  • 5 runners
  • 3 dice
  • 30 control markers (6 of each color)
  • 80 blackout markers
  • score track
  • Purchase option
