Drivers, start your engines! Will you cross the finish line first? Now is your chance to find out!
Designed by David Short, Automobiles is a deck‑building game in which the fun is cubed- because instead of using cards to build a deck, you build with your collection of cubes. These cubes not only allow you to race your car around the track, but also allow you to improve your handling, to optimize your pit crew, and to boost your speed, all of which are your keys to victory!
Depending on how many laps you choose to play, the focus of these two tracks varies. Fewer laps means more emphasis on beginning to drive early– and a much stronger luck-of-the-draw impact. More laps means more emphasis on crafting a strong deck capable of moving your car significant distances each turn. Maybe even multiple laps in a single turn! So, you can (to a certain extent) customize the degree of luck in the game.
The goal of the game is to cross the finish line first! You accomplish this by customizing your race car and surrounding yourself with the best crew. Your race car and crew are represented by a collection of cubes garnered from various options available to you. Starting with the same small set of cubes, each player builds their collection as they play the game. Use these cubes to enhance your performance, train your pit crew, and ensure your race car runs as effectively as possible. Be the first to cross the finish line and watch that checkered flag wave!
The game offers most of its replayability through the various cube abilities. There are also 2 tracks to choose from. This is a race game that offers enough possibilities to keep you coming back to the track again and again. And the expansion is implemented too!

Of course nothing would have been possible without our developer, BaronFraser, who did excellent work here by porting the game to BGA.
We would also like to thank AEG, as well as the designer, David Short, for allowing us to host the game here.
Now is your time to shine on your very own "Piston Cup."
Ka-Chow!
