Heat: Pedal to the Metal
Shift gears, hold the line, pass on the inside.
What it is
The best racing game at a non-trivial price point we've played. Gear changes feel like real driving decisions, cards cycle fast, and six players still finish a race in under an hour.
What we love
- Grin-inducing late-race surges
- Scales beautifully from 2 to 6
- Soloable with a tight AI
Honest trade-offs
- Table talk can slow things if the group isn't crisp
- First-timers may burn out on an all-out turn one
AI summary of player sentiment
