Race Royale

Race Royale is a fast-paced racing, party game where teams of two compete to out-race, out-wit or blast their opponents off the track! Last car on the track is the winner! Inspired by retro top-down racing video games, this board game adaptation lets teams of two take the wheel of a fast and furious, bustling bluffing bonanza. Because the theme of the race is "top-down" the drivers can't really see where they're going and must trust in the collective movement of the pack. Just follow the leader, but does the leader know they way or is he/she just trying to trick you into driving off the road? Out-smart your opponents, or collect power-ups, weapons to use against them. It pays to be in the lead, but as soon as you stop trusting in whoever is in front of you, you must slow down to have time to react, and before you know it, you'll fall behind! This bluff filled party game plays well with an even number of players, from 4 to 10. You can help your team mate by passing them information when they need it the most, or prevent them from crashing at a crucial moment by clever card play. As the race goes by, the road becomes more predictable and players may be tempted to take their chances in order to gain the much desired lead. Since the track is randomly generated, the finish line could come suddenly. In order for you (and your team mate) to win, you must be the first to cross the finish line, or have the last car on the track! —description from the designer
