THE LORE

Before the champions... Before the competition... Before the cities learned to control the Vril...

————

THE CUBE BROKE THE WORLD. THE VOID WAS BORN.

Element Nation had warred for generations over things that no longer mattered. Until the Void began to erase them.

Necessity forced them to evolve.
To take the power that was destroying them and harness it to fight back.

————

EIGHT FORCES. FOUR CITIES. ONE QUESTION THE VOID FORCED THEM TO ANSWER.
WHO AMONG THEM IS STRONG ENOUGH TO HOLD BACK THE DARK?
NOT OUT OF CRUELTY… BUT FOR HONOR.

THE GAME

Strategy matters. Chaos decides.

Most games reward whoever memorized the rules first , or played the most. Not in Element 8. Here beginners have just as much a chance at victory as veterans, and even after years of play, no two games unfold the same way. That's not a flaw. That's the whole point.

Unroll the map. Pick your element and get ready. Element 8 is game night chaos, in the best possible way — strategies form, then change, the moment you realize no amount of planning fully protects you.

Territory changes hands. Fortunes flip. Victory is never guaranteed

  • Light

    With speed as your ally, this ability lets you strike all opponents on the board simultaneously, albeit with light damage.

  • Stone

    This ability can be devastating when harnessed correctly but might yield little harm if mishandled. Mastering it requires patience and strategy, as it's all about the hunt for your target.

  • Electricity

    Wield this power to strike a significant blow to any single opponent, regardless of their position on the board. Choose wisely, as their location should influence your strategy; think through your attack.

  • Wind

    By harnessing the power of air, you can shift an opponent's position. While the base damage is modest, the true strength of this ability lies in mastering the board's layout.

  • Fire

    Like the lingering sting of a burn, this power targets any opponent with no immediate harm, but the effects persist. Monitor your opponents closely, as their position will determine the burn's severity over time.

  • Magnetism

    This power leaves no choice to its wielder. It harms those nearest to Magnet on either side, with the most intense damage inflicted on anyone unlucky enough to be in the same space when activated

  • Plant

    This power calls for strategy when inflicting damage. Though the harm doesn't come immediately, laying traps across the board can cleverly disrupt your rivals' paths before dealing damage. But caution is key; an excess of traps might not serve your best strategy.

  • Water

    Using this power is akin to calling upon the force of a mighty tsunami. Able to cover an entire side of the map with a flood, any opponents unlucky enough to be caught in its wake will pay the price.

“I have been playing this board game for over 8 years and it’s just as amusing as the first play. Every time I play this game the room is filled with laughter, battles, and talk of strategy. No round of gameplay is the same but it’s always fun. This is by far my favorite board game.”
