In Heat Wave, you and your friends are travelling around the world to compete and become the ultimate surfer.
You’ll visit 3 beaches, playing 3 rides at each one. During a ride, you’ll play cards to make your way along a wave, with the goal of reaching the shore and collecting valuable Scoring Wave Cards to strengthen your deck.
Complete your wave and you’ll also earn 3 Victory Points. After all 3 rides at a beach, you’ll score before moving on to the next one, and after the third beach, whoever has the most points wins.
Question of the Day: Have you surfed before? Tell us about your experience! Which beach would you love to surf at?
