Get ready to hit the gas with Automobiles, a racing game where deck-building gets a cubic twist! Instead of cards, you'll build your collection of cubes to power up your car and crew. Starting with a basic set, each driver expands their cube pool to enhance track performance, optimize pit stops, and boost top speed. The goal is straightforward: cross the finish line first! To achieve this, you need to customize your race car and assemble the best pit crew, all represented by the cubes you acquire throughout the game. It's an exciting race where hand management strategy and smart building of your cube 'engine' are crucial for victory. Designer David Short has gifted us this gem, part of AEG's 'Destination Fun' series, following in the tire tracks of hits like Trains and Planes. If you enjoy racing games with a dash of engine-building and resource management, Automobiles will put you in the pole position for fun. The game is known for being relatively light, with a weight that appeals to both newcomers and veterans, and a playtime that fits into an afternoon. Plus, it features digital implementations for those who prefer competing online, whether in real-time or turn-based. A great pick for anyone seeking a dynamic and engaging racing experience!
