A unique game reminiscent of TV and Film titles such as
It's a Mad Mad Mad Mad World, The Great Race, Around
the World in 80 Days and Dick Dastardly and Mutley. During the game each player will own four different vehicles and a set of marbles. You'll move around the tracks collecting money and buying advantages to add to your power. All races take place in the racetrack spinner. When a race is called, each player throws one marble into the spinner and adds an additional marble for each advantage point on that vehicle. Spin the racetrack. The marble that comes to rest in the winner's circle is the first place winner. Dastardly Dan will be racing against you every time and has the insidious habit of winning every now and then. So beware. |
