Top Speed (2003)

About this game

Top Speed has two players racing to place their cards on eight rows. Cards have two attributes - color and icon. On each row, there can be only one card with each color and each icon. Once one of the players empties their hand, the game ends. Rows are scored (they are worth one to five points) so that the player who played the last card wins the row. If there's a mistake, the first player to make a mistake loses the row. The game is over in just few minutes.

Does it fit your group?

• Group size. Strictly 2 players — no more, no fewer.
• Rules load. At 1.0/5 this is a light game — explain it in a few minutes, good for a table that has not played much.
• Age. The publisher suggests 8 and up. That rates the rules rather than the artwork, so judge the box yourself for younger players.
