About the game
Fliptown: New Frontier is the full-box expansion to the critically-acclaimed game Fliptown. This is not a standalone game. The base game Fliptown is required to play. Saddle up for this robust adventure that introduces four all-new regions to explore. Wrangle cows in the Hills. Pan for gold in the River. Take a ride on the Rails. Or stake your claim in New Town. In the New Frontier, you can play just using the new board (called Single-Barrel mode) or combine it with the base board (called Double-Barrel mode) for an even bigger game experience! New Frontier plays in the same manner as Fliptown, with a few fun new twists, including four new regions, a new resource called Hard Luck and some new game play aspects, including Ricochet Bonuses and a new type of bot called Sidekicks. Oh, and a whole lot of cows and chickens. Prepare to be challenged in a whole new way as you strive to once again be the best in the West! —description from the publisher

Fliptown: New Frontier supports 1–4 players according to the catalogue. This range comes from the publisher’s listed player count, so the game can be set up for any group size within it. Some setups, rules and scoring details may still vary by player count, so check your edition’s rulebook for the exact configuration.
The listed playing time for Fliptown: New Frontier is 30–60 minutes. This is the publisher’s estimate for a full game. The actual duration depends on the group, the player count and familiarity with the rules: first sessions usually run longer, while experienced groups often finish faster. Setup and teaching time are not included in this estimate.
The catalogue lists Fliptown: New Frontier for ages 12 and up. This is the publisher’s recommendation and reflects reading demands, rule complexity and small components rather than theme alone. Younger players can often join with help from an adult, so check the age guidance on your edition and consider your group’s experience with board games.
Fliptown: New Frontier has a complexity rating of 2.8 out of 5 from BoardGameGeek players, which makes it a medium-light game. The rating reflects how much rules knowledge, planning and decision-making a typical game demands. Expect a longer first teach for heavier games, and use a preparation guide before game night.
