What ABG knows about this game

A card-playing race game, where you have to avoid obstacles (placed by the players collectively at the start), maneuvering your carpet between the clouds and utilising the wind to be first to the destination. A special die adds a significant luck element over and above the card draw, yet there is definite room for strategy.
