About the game
A competitive racing game, based on the Alchemical Crystal Quest universe. Each player takes control of a driver. During the race, confront your opponents with objects and weapons such as bazookas, thumbtacks, spells ... Attack your opponents to lose control and cross the finish line in the first position. Use the cards to move and attack, control the strength of your car with brakes and nitro tokens, drive your car to avoid skidding in the curves, and take into account the change in weather. Fight your rivals, to get the first, but do not forget to break their cars on the road! —description from the publisher
