Easier Than Ever With Just The Four Classic Card Types That Fans The World Over Have Come To Know And Love. It Starts Out Simple: Draw One Card And Play One Card , But New Rule Cards Quickly Make Things Chaotic. Even The Object Of The Game Will Often Change As You Play, As Players Swap Out One Goal Card For Another. Can You Achieve World Peace Before Someone Changes The Goal To Bread And Chocolate?. Review: It is a fun game - Nice game for both adults and kids. easy to understand and fun for 2 or more players Review: I love the Fluxx series so much, and while I may play some of the other versions more often (I'll explain why at the end of this review), this and Monty Python Fluxx are my two absolute favorites! Fluxx is the perfect go-to game if you want something fast-paced, fun and easy to learn. Because the explanation and basic rules of the game are so simple, I've found that it's equally fun for brand-new players as for those who've played it before. Everything is explained on each card, so you can give very minimal instructions to new players and they'll pick it up easily. We usually use this as a warm-up game on game nights with friends and family, before moving on to more strategy-based games. Since I mentioned strategy, I will give you one word of caution: this is not a game for those who are looking for something with elaborate strategy and get frustrated when the plan they've been working on for several rounds either doesn't work out or backfires. The nature of the game is to be ever-changing, so you have to be willing to go with the flow. You can have some strategy, of course, but you have to be willing to see it blow up in front of you in seconds--and then laugh about it! A word about this version of the game: in my opinion, this particular version is best played when you're playing with fans of Sci Fi. This version is based around references to popular sci-fi film and television series (Star Wars, Star Trek, Dr. Who, etc.), and really I think it's funniest when you understand the references. It is playable with people who don't know their Sci Fi, but I don't think it's as much fun for them. Also, because of the special powers of some cards in the game it is a slightly more complex version of Fluxx than others--I wouldn't start anyone out with this unless they're playing with others that have played it before. ## Features - It starts with a few simple rules: Draw one card, Play one card - The rules and goals of the game constantly change as you play new cards - Ages 8+ - 2-6 players - 5-30 minutes playing time ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B00OETKWCE | | Assembly Required | No | | Batteries Included? | No | | Batteries Required? | No | | Best Sellers Rank | #46,565 in Toys ( See Top 100 in Toys ) #736 in Dedicated Deck Card Games | | Color | Multi-Colour | | Customer Reviews | 4.8 4.8 out of 5 stars (4,778) | | Date First Available | 20 October 2014 | | Educational Objective(s) | To improve strategic thinking, adaptability, and social interaction skills | | Item model number | LON00001 | | Language | English, French, German, Italian | | Manufacturer recommended age | 3 years and up | | Material Type(s) | Cardstock | | Number of Game Players | 2 to 6 | | Number of Puzzle Pieces | 120 | | Product Dimensions | 2.54 x 9.53 x 12.4 cm; 190.51 g | | Release date | 1 January 2023 | | Remote Control Included? | No | ## Product Details - **Age range (description):** 8 years + - **Brand:** Looney Labs - **Material:** Cardstock - **Number of players:** 2 to 6 - **Theme:** Strategy ## Images ![Fluxx: 5.0 - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71ngxR8mtUL.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Style** options. ## Questions & Answers **Q: How different is this from Fluxx 4.0?** A: I know it doesn't contain the creeper cards like 4.0. **Q: for anyone who has played both Fluxx 4.0 and 5.0 which do you prefer and why?** A: I believe the difference between the two is 4.0 has creepers (an added concept to the gameplay) 5.0 does not the creators wanted to simplify the game so they took it out i have played both and i prefer 5.0 **Q: Does this deck mix well with the original decks, or is this considered more of a replacement?** A: It would mix very well with any other type of fluxx (zombie fluxx, batman fluxx, etc.) if you just wanted to make a super large deck. However if you wanted to mix it with an older version of just regular fluxx (4.0 and previous) your deck would just have two of most of the cards. The changes between core versions of the regular fluxx games are usually mostly aesthetic with only few cards switched out for others. This newest version 5.0 removes the creeper card type that was added in 4.0 and replaces them with a few action and new rule cards. **Q: If you have multiple decks can more people play?** A: I've played Flux with as many as 10-12 people. It works providing you have two (or more?) Fluxx decks that mix well. I imagine this deck would play nicely with any other Fluxx deck, whereas mixing two specialty decks doesn't always work. (Zombies + Pirates = not good.) The other thing is that it can take a while to get around the table, so we had side chatter and a side game or two going on -- you might want to remove the "Play All", "Play 5", and "Play 4" cards from larger games to help speed it up. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ It is a fun game *by Y***R on 3 September 2020* Nice game for both adults and kids. easy to understand and fun for 2 or more players ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Review *by M***E on 3 February 2014* I love the Fluxx series so much, and while I may play some of the other versions more often (I'll explain why at the end of this review), this and Monty Python Fluxx are my two absolute favorites!

A lot. It's simple to understand and very interesting because the goals and the rules can keep changing. The game is constantly in flux. It's fun and really likeable but I would advise you to play it with a group of people that like trying out different things and experimenting and do not expect games to -always- finish within 15 minutes. ## Frequently Bought Together - Looney Labs Fluxx 5.0 Card Game Fun, Fast-Paced, Ever-Changing Rules, Perfect for Family Game Night and Parties - Camping Fluxx Card Game by Looney Labs - Summer Fun, Outdoor Adventure, Perfect for Family Camping Trips and Campfire Nights - Looney Labs Pirate Fluxx Card Game - Ever-Changing Pirate-Themed Fun --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/266635965-fluxx-5-0](https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/266635965-fluxx-5-0) --- *Product available on Desertcart Great Britain* *Store origin: GB* *Last updated: 2026-04-23*
