About the game
If you love high-energy-sessions with a big group, Partners+ is exactly what your game night needs! This version takes the core-loop of the original Partners and cranks it up for up to six players, making it perfect for playing in pairs or even two teams of three. The goal is straightforward but thrilling: work with your partner to race your pieces from the starting area to the target zone as fast as you can.

Movement is driven by card play, moving your pieces clockwise around the board based on the values you play. It's a race against time and against the other teams! You'll find yourself constantly calculating your next move, trying to optimize your path while keeping an eye on where your opponents are heading. It's all about that sweet spot between luck and tactical positioning.

What makes this version stand out is how it handles larger-scale-social play. Instead of a quiet duel, you get a lively-racing experience that keeps everyone engaged. The games are snappy, usually wrapping up in under an hour, making it a fantastic filler or a great way to kick off a game night. Whether you are a veteran of the original or a newcomer looking for a quick-to-learn-but-hard-to-master racing game, Partners+ delivers pure-speed-driven fun without any unnecessary fluff.
