From the publisher's website "Master Plan is a gameshow for supervillains. Players leap from space to space in an American-Gladiator style arena, building the game floor secretly as they play. Will you set traps in your own path, to tempt others into racing ahead of you? Will you surround the goal with all manner of hazards, leaving yourself a secret back-door to victory? Only the most cunning will reach the trophy–for the others, it’s the trapdoor!" Master Plan is a real-space racing game where players build the board as they play, using traps, gadgets, and utilities to get the upper hand and eliminate the competition. It is played on a 3' or larger table, takes about 30 minutes, and supports 3 to 6 players.
