## Description
Get your brain ready because things are heating up on Mount Olympus! In Zeus on the Loose, the mighty Zeus has bolted from his throne, and now it's up to you to catch him. This is a fast-paced card race where you'll be adding up numbers to climb the mythical mountain. The key to victory? You need to make sure the total sum of the cards reaches a multiple of 10 to successfully grab Zeus. But don't think it's just simple addition! To keep things exciting, you can summon the divine powers of gods like Apollo, Poseidon, or the mighty Hera to flip the script on your opponents. Using these special ability cards at the perfect moment can disrupt your friends' plans and secure your spot among the gods. It's a quick, snappy game perfect for a casual night with friends, yet it requires constant focus so you don't lose track of the count or get blindsided by a tricky Hera card.
