The new edition includes the On Fire expansion which introduces new “On Fire” cards.  As soon as one of these special cards are added to the tableau, the next card must be played in the same pile, adding more difficulty to the challenge of playing all 98 cards.

The Game:  On Fire was designed by The Game’s creator Steffen Benndorf, and can be played by 1 to 5 players in about 20 minutes.  MSRP is $19.99.

IDW acquired the English language rights to The Game and published their version last year, after it was nominated for the prestigious Spiel des Jahres game design award (see “IDW Games to Release ‘The Game’”).
