Völuspá: Lightning Bolt

About this expansion

Völuspá: Lightning Bolt is a six-tile expansion for 2–5 players, designed to be played with the Völuspá base game or with the base game and Saga of Edda expansion. A game takes approximately 45 minutes.

Inspired by the gods’ use of lightning against their enemies, this expansion adds a direct way to alter the playing area. When you add a lightning bolt tile, you zap a tile already in play and replace it with the lightning bolt.

The replacement is not simply a change to the board: you also score that line at the same time. This gives each lightning bolt a clear tactical purpose, combining tile replacement with immediate scoring in one action.

• Includes six lightning bolt tiles.
• Compatible with the Völuspá base game.
• Can also be used with the base game and Saga of Edda expansion together.
• Replaces a tile in play and scores the line simultaneously.

Völuspá: Lightning Bolt is a focused addition for players who want to bring this distinctive lightning-powered effect to their Völuspá games. Its compact set of six tiles introduces a memorable way to zap existing tiles while resolving scoring at the same time.

Released in 2013, the expansion keeps its concept straightforward: add a lightning bolt to the playing area, remove a tile by zapping it, replace that tile, and score the affected line. It is designed to extend either the original game or a game using Saga of Edda.
