Rumble Planet is a board game released in 2025 for 2–5 players, 60 minutes per game, and ages 14 and up. Its main mechanics are Variable Player Powers, Dice Rolling, and Hexagon Grid.
Rumble Planet is a wacky, chaotic take on the battle royal genre with no player elimination. Land on the planet, loot weapons and armor, and duke it out on the battlefield! Each player takes control of a single contestant in this deadly popularity contest. During their turn, they can move around the hex grid of the battlefield, open “loot boxes” to receive new equipment and attack their opponents with the weapon they found. However, all items are hit with planned obsolescence, and will quickly be discarded over the turns. Each action can earn them Prestige Points, and the first player to reach 18 points wins the game. Being KO’d doesn’t remove the player from the game but will give their assassin a big bonus in Prestige Points. -description from publisher
Rumble Planet supports 2–5 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 Rumble Planet is 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 Rumble Planet for ages 14 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.
Rumble Planet has a complexity rating of 2.3 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.
