Let's Play a Game! A place to discuss all things board game, regardless of genre. Everything from Scrabble and Catan to Ark Nova, 1830 and beyond is fair game! That means we have blackjack. Bring your own hookers, sorry.

Rules:

Play nicely with others here.
Discussion should be at least somewhat related to board games and all that entails.
Self-promotion is allowed within reason. Don't go overboard!

Cars jockeying for position as they run laps, hoping they don't crash

Fuck your sheep, wood, grain and roads, I hate this island and want to leave

Crazy Karts and Catan?

That first one sounds like every racing game ever, so I’ll guess a good one: Rallyman GT?

[–] ada@lemmy.blahaj.zone 3 points 3 months ago

Bingo!

I couldn't find a way of distinguishing it from other racing games without giving it away, but personally, I love Rallyman GT but don't so much love other racing games, because the positioning and how it impacts you and other players is much more important in Rallyman

I would guess Heat and Catan (Heat would deserve the praise ahah)

[–] ada@lemmy.blahaj.zone 2 points 3 months ago

Rallyman GT. I like the PvP element of Rallyman more than Heat or Formula D.

[–] zero_spelled_with_an_ecks@programming.dev 1 points 3 months ago (2 children)

Formula D

Agreed on your second. Why do so many people like it?

[–] ada@lemmy.blahaj.zone 3 points 3 months ago

Formula D

Rallyman GT. I enjoy it much much more than Formula D. Formula D didn't have enough crunch for me

Yeah, idk. Bad starting positions basically doom your chance to win before they've even begun.
