HIFI Board Game

The Meeples Are Back! In 1973, the internationally renowned band, The Meeples, stunned the world by breaking up during the recording of their highly anticipated album, HIFI. Only the “A” side of the album was ever released - but now The Meeples have reunited and YOU are the producers charged with recording the “B” side of this long-awaited masterpiece.

So get into the studio and strategically place audio cards on the song tracks to earn points, achieve objectives and gain bonus actions. Tactics can turn on the fly as opponents remix the board for their own goals leaving you to rethink your strategy. In the end, whoever accumulates the most points will be hailed as the greatest producer in music history.

Step into the recording studio and complete a legendary unfinished album in HIFI. The fictional band The Meeples has reunited decades after breaking apart while recording its anticipated record, leaving players to act as producers responsible for creating the missing B side. Audio cards are placed across song tracks to build scoring patterns and meet changing production objectives.

The game combines card placement, pattern matching and tactical timing. Each card can strengthen a developing track, contribute to an objective or prepare a useful bonus action, but opponents can remix the shared board and change which arrangements remain valuable. Successful producers must read the evolving studio layout and decide whether to protect a current plan or redirect their cards towards a stronger opportunity.

The game box transforms into a rotating turntable that serves as the action selector, making the theme part of the central mechanism rather than simple decoration. Final recording bonuses are awarded after the last placements, so the scoring contest remains open until the album is complete. Solo play is supported alongside competitive sessions for up to four producers.
