Since 2018, 8Bit Box: Cheat Pack has captivated fans of auction with its design.
How It Plays
Action Queue
You plan a sequence of actions in advance, then they play out in order — think ahead or get left behind.
Auction / Bidding
Players bid against each other for cards, tiles, or resources — knowing when to go big and when to fold is the key.
Grid Movement
Pieces move on a grid of squares — straightforward movement that still leaves room for deep tactical thinking.
Race
It's all about getting to the finish first — every move counts when you're sprinting toward the goal.
Simultaneous Action Selection
Everyone chooses their action at the same time and reveals together — no waiting around, and plenty of surprises.
About This Game

Comprised of 3 "Cheat Code" cards, 1 each for Pixoid, Outspeed, and Stadium, these cheat codes allow you a special surprise ability if your recent plays have matched the required sequence on the card in order to gain a bonus.
