WIN (2024)

About this game

In this micro Long Shot card game, players bet and perform actions at the track while the race unfolds. Your secret bets and clever horse moves are key to winning the most cash at the end of the race! The Active Player reveals the 4 Run cards, flipping them over 1 at a time to form a row. The game ends immediately after a third horse crosses the finished line (Track space 9). Players then reveal their Starting Bets and multiply them with the 3 finished horses’ Odds. Next, do the same for any Bets placed at the Bookie card and add any remaining Cash for a final total. The player with the most money wins! —description from the designer

Does it fit your group?

• Group size. Works with 2 to 4.
• Rules load. At 2.0/5 this is a mid-weight game — expect a proper rules explanation before you start.
• Age. The publisher suggests 14 and up. That rates the rules rather than the artwork, so judge the box yourself for younger players.
