About the game

Join forces to get the Delorean to 88MPH and go back to the future! Clear all the Paradoxes by using Flux Energy. The problem is, all players are playing from the future and cannot communicate, you can only send signals! Players need to work together to clear the Paradoxes by laying Flux Energy cards with different values to fulfill each Paradox objective, clearing it from the time continuum. Each Paradox has a unique problem that must be fixed. Decode the paradox card and find out how to solve them. Once the requirements of the Paradox are met the Delorean is able to move to that space. You must lay a card on your turn. You can play a card even if it does not help to fix a Paradox or if you cannot go or choose not to go you can reveal the next Paradox in the line. However this causes another Paradox to appear in the future!
