About the game
Devil's Run: Hell's Highway is a fast-moving and hard-hitting vehicular combat board game (for 2-6 players) set in a post-apocalyptic America. This is a standalone expansion to Devil's Run: Route 666 and each can be played on their own or can be mashed together for more extreme carnage! The Devil's Run system uses a rolling board mechanic, to ensure all players feel like they are on the edge of their seat; fall too far behind and you are out of the race, get too far in front and you could open yourself to an airstrike or an unexpected obstacle in the road. Live fast and die hard on Hell's Highway. Can you survive the Devil's Run? There are four main types of vehicles: Bikes, Trikes, Buggies and Cars. Each of these vehicle types play differently due to how they drive, their weapons and their arcs of fire. The game has story driven missions which are a mix of full throttle racing and maximum carnage vehicular battle, with an immersive ruleset to make you feel like you're a part of the post-apoc action. You use three, six and ten sided dice, statlines and modifications to represent every aspect of the game from scenery effects, shooting, ramming and sideswiping, to using equipment like Nitros, Oil Slicks and Smoke Screens. This set is the Law Haulage gang being attacked by the Purple Causairs
