SLICKS (GER)

slicks
A fast-paced game by Stefan Risthaus

Description:

The smell of gasoline fills the air, you're sitting in your car, waiting for the starting signal. Now, of all times, you're starting to doubt whether your chosen pit strategy is the right one...

In this car race, everything depends on treating your tires (slicks) well, or at least risking them at the right time. The more worn your tires, the lower your top speed. On each turn, your travel distance is determined randomly (by rolling a dice or a card). However, in difficult sections, with worn tires, or with an overly heavy fuel tank, your speed is limited from the start. Those who still have fuel in their tank can help the odds by increasing their speed based on their position. This favors the lagging drivers, keeping the race exciting until the very end.

With its simple rules and random elements, SLICKS is well-suited as a family game. Its tactical possibilities also make it fun for frequent players.
