Pressure Matrix

Welcome to the Pressure Matrix — a futuristic game show where the contestants fight for their very lives. Trapped into a four walled arena, each runner moves to score the most points, while simultaneously pinning opponents into the corners of the Pressure Matrix, where they cannot move. As the game goes on, the pressure mounts as the runners move faster and faster, with fewer and fewer options. The game ends immediately when any runner is "frozen" (out of control markers at the start of the runner's turn). Pressure Matrix is a fast-paced, clever strategy game for 2 to 5 players. With multiple levels of play, random tile placement, and sinister opponents, there is no end to the Pressure Matrix.
