Vortex

About this board game

Vortex is a dynamic board game for 1–6 players, with games lasting around 60 minutes. Players place routers and controllers, then try to be the first to reach the other side of the board.

Designed for family and friend groups, Vortex offers a central challenge that is easy to understand: arrange the routers and controllers and make your way across the board. Its changing board helps keep play fresh, so repeated games do not feel exactly the same.

The basic game is called Crossing, and players can also try the Crossing Advanced variant. These versions support 2–6 players, making Vortex suitable for a range of group sizes.

• Crossing: the basic game for 2–6 players.
• Crossing Advanced: an advanced variant for 2–6 players.
• Cat & Mouse: a version for younger players aged 6 and older.
• Solitary: a challenging option for playing alone.

For younger players, Cat & Mouse provides a dedicated way to enjoy the game from age 6. If you prefer a solo challenge, Solitary lets you play on your own.

Whether played with family, friends, younger players, or by yourself, Vortex provides several ways to approach its board. The combination of different game modes and a dynamic board gives this 2016 release lasting variety across its 1–6-player options.
