What players say
I took a risk because it looked interesting, and I'm glad i did. This game is kind-of a mashup between Lonestar and Backpack Hero - in the right ways. 9/10 Some turns, you will have it wired how you want and simply hit the on switch. Other turns, you will move connections around to activate different things, or maybe hold a button that lets you pick each module to activate - so you can make some crazy combo based on...

It's a deckbuilder except your deck is a rack of the weirdest modular synth patches. Rogue Voltage is a really weird fish, but there's a gem of a game here waiting to be found. It can feel finicky at first, and late into a run when your rack gets full of esoteric modules that daisy-chain combos across different racks, it can look overwhelming, but once you learn to read the rack, it's fabulous.
Definetely very fun to play. By leveling up the buildings it keeps you the joy to play again.
