About the game

If you like Hike! and wish to have an even bigger experience, the Events and Traits expansion is for you. It adds a hefty deck of 64 cards to the gameplay. It includes trait cards that players get at the beginning of the game and that give them a bit of asymmetric starting positions, and event cards that add another layer to card drafting, and present players with more options in the race phase. Event cards are divided into two groups - the majority of them are events that only influence the race track or the player that played them, and there are 12 event cards that include more player interaction and a bit of 'take that' element. Players can decide if they want these last 12 events part of the game or not. -description from the Kickstarter campaign
