Power Grid is the updated release of the Friedemann Friese crayon game Funkenschlag. It removes the crayon aspect from network building in the original edition, while retaining the fluctuating commodities market like Crude: The Oil Game and an auction round intensity reminiscent of The Princes of Florence.

The objective of Power Grid is to supply the most cities with power when someone's network gains a predetermined size. In this new edition, players mark pre-existing routes between cities for connection, and then bid against each other to purchase the power plants that they use to power their cities.

However, as plants are purchased, newer, more efficient plants become available, so by merely purchasing, you're potentially allowing others access to superior equipment.

Additionally, players must acquire the raw materials (coal, oil, garbage, and uranium) needed to power said plants (except for the 'renewable' windfarm/ solar plants, which require no fuel), making it a constant struggle to upgrade your plants for maximum efficiency while still retaining enough wealth to quickly expand your network to get the cheapest routes.

Customers are welcome to return sealed, unopened board games, puzzles, crafts, and decks of cards to the store within 30 days of purchase with valid receipt.  Final sale on all trading card games, role playing games, Warhammer products, and concessions.  Opened items cannot be returned, with the exception of the Library Effect.

The Library Effect: If you purchased and opened a board game that is not in our store's board game library and would like to return it, we will accept the return by refunding 50% of the purchase price in store credit.  That game will go into the store's library for future patrons to try out prior to purchasing.
