Watch “Heat - How to Play in 4 minutes - BoardgameNinja - Days of Wonder - Pedal to the Metal,” a how-to-play guide on BoardGameVideo.
Description provided by BoardgameNinja on YouTube:
Heat definitely surfs along the popularity of Formule One racing. It is not only the hype, but Days of Wonder managed to put down a really solid racing game. It borrows elements from Formula DE and other race games, but that is not a bad thing. In my experience the finish is always tight, because of the excellent catch-up mechanism. So it becomes a game of timing, using your heat wisely and saving the best cards at the perfect moment. Much fun, even if the theme doesn't appeal to you.
In 4 minutes we teach the complete game by showing it in detail and pointing out important details with animations. If you are new to the game, played it ages ago and just wants to refresh your memory or if you are still undecided if you want to buy this: this is the video for you. It will take only a few minutes of your time.

About Heat: Pedal to the Metal, from BoardGameGeek:
Based on simple and intuitive hand management, Heat: Pedal to the Metal puts players in the driver's seat of intense car races, jockeying for position to cross the finish line first, while managing their car's speed if they don't want to overheat. Selecting the right upgrades for their car will help them hug the curves and keep their engine cool enough to maintain top speeds. Ultimately, their driving skills will be the key to victory!
Drivers can compete in a single race or use the "Championship System" to play a whole season in one game night, customizing their car before each race to claim the top spot of the podium. They have to be careful as the weather, road conditions, and events will change every race to spice up their championship. Players can also enjoy a solo mode with the Legends Module or add automated drivers as additional opponents in multiplayer games.
