At the start of each race, players draft betting tickets — play it safe or flip to the risky side for bigger payouts (or bigger losses). Each player secretly contributes a card to the racing deck, influencing the chaos without full control. Cards are revealed one by one, moving mascots along the track in gloriously unpredictable ways: swerving into other lanes, turning around, or sending everyone backwards at once. After three races, the player with the most money wins.
- Fast setup, chaotic fun — perfect for game nights of any size
- Push-your-luck betting with a risky/safe flip mechanic
- Every race is different thanks to player-contributed cards
- Compact and portable — great travel game
Perfect for: Families, casual gamers, fans of Camel Up, and anyone who loves betting, bluffing, and screaming at a race.
Customer Reviews
Fun family game. We had lots of fun playing this game. It is easy to learn and teach and the game is quick enough to fit in when you are otherwise busy. The design of the game box needs a bit of work. It’s a nice idea and everything fits together, but the racetrack pushes in the cardboard when it is retracted and bends it inwards which tore it.
