Overview
What ABG knows about this game
Roadkill Rivals is a fast-paced, multi-player card game set in the American Southwest. Players collect cards, sabotage opponents, and compete to create roadkill. The deck is made up of three kinds of cards: vehicle cards, animal cards, and roadside cards. Players collect vehicle cards and animal cards. If the combination is right, a player will use a vehicle card to run over an animal card and score points. Roadside cards provide an element of randomness. Some affect an individual, and some affect the group. Some are beneficial, and some are punishing. Beware of offramps, rush hour, and the police. Lastly, players have the option to sabotage their opponent's strategy by attacking, forcing their opponent to discard. Strong animal cards can kill weaker ones, and large vehicle cars can run smaller ones off the road.
