It’s action packed and fast paced, intuitive to pick up for my novice friends and family, replayable with several kinds of optional mechanics. Initially, I picked it up because someone mentioned it in a Flamme Rouge review as being better than it, and I enjoy both games to pieces as the mechanics are immersive.
The new tracks and stuff seem interesting so I’d like to pick up an expansion, but not multiple at once. So help me pick:
- Heavy Rain, Japan + Mexico, puddles and consecutive curves, bumch of new cards
- Tunnel Vision, Netherlands and Spain, tunnels, bunch of new cards
- Rocky Road (upcoming in 2026), South Africa and Germany, gravel roads and stuff
I’ve played both expansions and they’re (to me) identical.
Both expansions have one new card-mechanic, and one on-track mechanic, which only applies to one track each from the respective expansion and both expansions introduce aggressive AIs, iirc (the chevrons).
So, I think, you should decide which card mechanic you prefer, either the cooldown from discard (Heavy rain/Supercool), or easier slipstreaming (Tunnelvision/Draft), because these will apply to all tracks.
Or you can print tracks made by the community, if you simply want more tracks, but I have no experience with those.
None is also an option, if none are really worth it.
