What's On - Morning Session
Heat: Pedal To The Metal
Introductory Session - Learn How To Play
2023 Speelgoed van het Jaar Expert Games WinnerBased 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.

Fortunately the players can engage the ships time drive to reset the board before the disasters become too much for them. They can then try again with the added knowledge of when and where the disasters will appear.If you can repeat the timeline enough, collecting the right equipment and positioning yourselves to pre-empt the disasters as they happen, you should be able to predict enough rounds to fix the hyperdrive and win the game. However, each time you time travel you cause a paradox, and too many paradoxes could erase you from the timeline!
