■ Product Introduction
[Game Background]
In cycling, the red flag (flam rouge) is an important signal that marks the final kilometre of a race.
This marks the final stretch and the competing cyclists must give it their all.
Cyclists from around the world gather on the outskirts of Paris to race under the red flag in search of fame and glory.
[Game Goal]
Each player controls two types of players: a Rouleur and a Sprinteur.
A ruler is a rider who excels at stable running, while a sprinter is a rider who excels at sudden acceleration.
The player's goal is to get one of their riders to the finish line first.
If more than one rider crosses the line in the same round, the rider who is furthest forward wins.
[Game Progression]
The game is played using numbered energy cards.
Players draw a card from their hand and move their player forward the number of times indicated on the card.
The key is to utilize the slipstream to avoid fatigue and time your sprint for victory.
[Truck Tile Features]
The track tiles can be used on both sides, allowing for a variety of course configurations.
This allows you to enjoy a different race every time.
Fatigue cards represent the rigors of the race and act as a strategic decision-making element.
[Game appeal]
The game is characterized by its fast-paced and tactical nature.
Rather than simply drawing cards and moving forward, you need to read other players' movements, take advantage of slipstreams, and sprint at the right time.
Fatigue management is also an important factor; if you run too hard from the beginning, you will lose momentum towards the end.
You can experience the tension of the race, the excitement of the last kilometer, and the comeback just before the finish line, just like in a real race.
