In Agility, you and your opponent become trainers of agility dogs, the sport where canines dash through obstacle courses. Each game starts by drafting three courses out of six available, and the first step is to adopt the dogs that will compete. Training cards are the engine of the game: when you play one, you generate resources (energy or speed) and simultaneously set the action to be taken, usually reacting to what your opponent just did. This dual function forces you to think twice before placing a card – the resource you need might not line up with the action you’d like.

With resources in hand, you can adopt a high‑performing "Wonderdog" or a modest "Underdog" and then clear the obstacles on your track. Each obstacle costs resources, so hand management and open drafting are essential. Since courses can only be started after a dog is adopted, a race‑within‑a‑race emerges: who secures the best dog for the most suitable track gains the edge.

Play proceeds in turns using a rondel that dictates which action types are available each round, keeping the pace lively and preventing any player from hogging a single strategy. In about 30‑45 minutes you’ll watch your blue‑eyed Husky, radiant Golden Retriever, and even the feisty Jack Russell zip through poles, tunnels, and pause boxes while trying to anticipate your rival’s moves. The low weight (2.08) and gentle learning curve make Agility ideal for fans of quick tactical duels, especially two‑player showdowns. If you love animal themes, fast decisions, and the thrill of a canine race, this game will have you barking for more.
