Snail's Pace (2000)

About this game

A snail race championship including 6 circuits. On each turn, the players play at the same time a speed card, then move. An action card is then played trying to move farther forward, to shoot an opponent, or to push it on the wall... Each snail starts the race with 3 shell points that will help it to survive the obstacles and opponent tricks. At the end of each race, snails score points depending on their ranking. A fun light game for all!

Does it fit your group?

• Group size. Works with 2 to 6.
• 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 10 and up. That rates the rules rather than the artwork, so judge the box yourself for younger players.
