Magical Athlete, Rules overview, example of play and my Impression

Game4LifeBG

Watch “Magical Athlete, Rules overview, example of play and my Impression,” a board game review for Magical Athlete from Game4LifeBG on BoardGameVideo.

Description provided by Game4LifeBG on YouTube:

Magical Athlete is a racing game of pure chaos! Roll a die and move your racer that many spaces — but all the racers have wacky, game-breaking abilities. Race four times, then whoever has the most points wins! The game is designed by Richard Garfield and Takashi Ishida and it's for 2-6 players and takes 30 min. and is for the ages 6+. Before the racing begins, players will draft the four racers they will have in the game and choose before each race which to use. Races alternate between the "mild" side of the board and the "wild" side of the board. A race ends once two racers have crossed the finish line — with, generally, only these two players receiving points. #magicalathlete #boardgame #rules
