About the game
What you do in a play session
Get ready for an extra dose of chaos and speed with Joyride: High Seas, the expansion that brings a new level of automotive piracy to your races! If you already enjoyed the adrenaline of Joyride: Downtown, you'll love the new additions that spice up the competition even more. With the iconic Pirate Van, you won't just race, but also sow terror on the track, stealing items from your opponents and disappearing over the horizon before they even realize what happened. It's the perfect opportunity for those who enjoy a good 'take that' with style!
But it doesn't stop there! The expansion also introduces the Harpoon, a strategic tool that allows you to reposition other cars from a distance, paving the way for daring maneuvers or to hinder those on your tail. And for moments of desperation or pure audacity, the Anchor is there for a high-stakes emergency brake, which can save you or get you into an even bigger pickle. And to top it all off, new boost strips can be strategically placed around the circuit, giving a speed boost to anyone who passes over them, whether they like it or not! Joyride: High Seas promises to transform every race into an unpredictable adventure full of twists and turns, guaranteeing laughs and plenty of excitement at the table.
