Racing Games @ Triple Rock / Berkeley

Who doesnt love the thrill of besting their comrades in a thrilling and nail biting race!! Well tonight, for the first time ever, we are playing board games that exclusively have racing as part of the game!

We've got some super cool and fun new games coming out!!

First up, Gabi will be hosting HOT STREAK, a new and hard to find absolutely hilarious racing game that is so incredibly fun! Hot Streak is a game for hard luck gamblers who love to bet on and scream at the racers, who in this case happen to be mascots who may (or may not) keep running in the right direction!

Justin will be hosting HEAT: PEDAL TO THE METAL, which puts players in the driver's seat of intense car races, jockeying for position to cross the finish line first, while managing their car's speed if they don't want to overheat. Selecting the right upgrades for their car will help them hug the curves and keep their engine cool enough to maintain top speeds. Ultimately, their driving skills will be the key to victory!

Sam will be hosting CAMEL UP, a hilarious and strangely nail biting betting and racing game of camels who can pile up on top of eacthother and hordes of camels can move randomly all in a single turn. But like any race, there can be only one winner. Will the lonely camel whose lagging behind pile on top of the ones in front of it to claim victory or will the front runner win?!?! Anything goes in this hilarious game.

Hetul will be hosting SUMMIT, be the first to reach the top of the newly discovered 10,000 metre peak and score 100 points. Sounds simple! However, in this game of strategy you will need to navigate around moving obstacles and avoid capture by your opponents. Doubling, trebling and quadrupling may hasten your progress or send you tumbling down the mountain in all directions.

Game roster includes:

HOT STREAK - hilarious gambling / racing game
HEAT: PEDAL TO THE METAL - upgrade your car to win
CAMEL UP - goofy and glorious betting game of absurdity
SUMMIT - be the first to the top!
TOKAIDO - monks on a walk - a race for enlightenment
ESCAPE FROM ATLANTIS - get off the crumbling island with hazards in the water.
ESCAPE: THE CURSE OF THE TEMPLE - classic indiana temple escape
+more to be announced
