Thrash'n Roll: Stage Heroes is an expansion for Thrash'n Roll released in 2015 for 2–4 players, 45–90 minutes per game, and ages 12 and up. It was designed by Krzysztof Matusik and Aleksander Biela.
This expansion introduces new band abilities which can be used in both standard and basic variants. Before the start of the game each player randomly takes one of the disc with a special ability and places it by his or hers band board. There is an ability depicted on the disc. This (mini-)expansion is included in the Kickstarter edition of Thrash 'n' Roll.
Thrash'n Roll: Stage Heroes supports 2–4 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 Thrash'n Roll: Stage Heroes is 45–90 minutes. This is the publisher’s estimate for a full game.

Setup and teaching time are not included in this estimate.
The catalogue lists Thrash'n Roll: Stage Heroes for ages 12 and up. This is the publisher’s recommendation and reflects reading demands, rule complexity and small components rather than theme alone.
