Oh no, the mine is collapsing! Hurry, get in the wagon and head towards the exit! Infernal Wagon is an intensely fun cooperative game in which players must work together to create a path to the exit… before time runs out! But be careful: each card played has a high chance of triggering devastating effects! A game of Infernal Wagon plays in 7 minutes at most, until one of the end game conditions is met. In this cooperative game, all players win or lose together. At the start of the game, place the 3 starting cards and the wagon on the last one. There is no turn order: when the time is right, the player with the best card plays and activates its effect. They draw a card and any other player can take a turn (in the 2 players variant, you can play 2 cards consecutively). Once a card is played, move the wagon onto it. Place the exit card in the 7 minutes time span to win the game! —description from the publisher
