Capital Lux 2: Generations

About this board game

Capital Lux 2: Generations is a tactical card game for 1–4 players with a playing time of about 40 minutes. This standalone sequel challenges you to balance personal scoring with the changing powers of the capital.

At the heart of each round is a difficult choice: play character cards in your home base for points, or contribute them to the capital to gain the benefit of its powers. Every card you place can affect both your own position and the limits you must respect later.

At the end of a round, the total value of any color in your home base cannot be higher than that color’s current total value in the capital. If your home base exceeds the limit, you lose those cards. This creates a constant tactical tension as you try to secure points without pushing your holdings too far.

• Exchangeable capital powers can be mixed and matched.
• There are 256 unique power combinations.
• One combination plays as the original Capital Lux, while the other 255 introduce new tactical challenges.

The game lasts three rounds. After the third round, all cards remaining in your home base are worth points, rewarding careful planning while making every decision along the way matter.

With its adjustable powers and sharp push-and-pull between the home base and capital, Capital Lux 2: Generations offers a changing tactical puzzle from one power combination to the next. Decide when to invest in the capital, when to protect your score, and how close to the limit you dare to play.
