## Overview

Power Grid Recharged is a strategic board game for 2-6 players aged 13 and up, featuring over 90 minutes of competitive gameplay. Players build and manage energy networks using diverse power sources like coal, oil, nuclear, and renewable options. The game includes a double-sided board, 132 wooden houses, resource tokens, and is compatible with all previous expansions, making it a dynamic and evolving experience for strategy enthusiasts.

## Description

Power Grid Recharged has all the strategy and fun of the classic first edition, but adds some updates that improve the (already great) gameplay. What better way to earn money than with electric power?!! But how should you do it? Will you use old-fashioned coal or oil? Maybe you’ll be on the forefront of burning garbage. Nuclear power is tempting, as long as you can acquire uranium. You can always be independent of resources if you go the ecological route. However you decide to generate the energy, you’ll have to compete with your opponents not only for the most attractive power plants, but for the necessary resources and the sites to build your network of energy distribution. You’ll need to watch your opponents closely, carefully manage your money, and expand your network thoughtfully in order to generate income. The player that is able to build the largest network AND successfully power it will be the winner.

Review: Great for A power Distribution Electrical Engineer - This game was a hit over Christmas! I bought it for a power distribution electrical engineer and the whole family enjoyed it. Even a former power finance guy who hates games had a good time! The rest of us had no relation to power and thoroughly enjoyed it as well. Reading through all the rules and understanding it fully was a bit of a challenge initially, but once we got going, it was extremely fun and competitive. I loved that it wasn't a game where people are miserable that are losing significantly; they were still enjoying it and going for the win. It is a time consuming game though, so make sure you have several hours for it. Of course that depends on the size of the group also. We played it wil 6 players and it took about 2.5 hours. The best way to describe it is Monopoly meets power distribution. If there is someone in your life that works with power and energy, they're sure to love it!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great game
*by 4***T on February 23, 2023*

Bought the game last week and used it for a game night over the weekend. The game board and pieces are all well-built and does not feel flimsy or cheap. The game is relatively easy to learn if you take your time. It's not a quick read of the directions and then off you go. We slowed down and went over the rules and then again over each step as we played. Was a lot of fun and the time passed quickly.
