Long Shot: The Dice Game

The game ends with everyone staring at their dry-erase boards realizing they bought the wrong horse right before it got disqualified. It’s a roll-and-write horse racing game where you buy horses, place bets, and alter the track layout.

Core Mechanics: On your turn, you roll the eight-sided die and move the corresponding horse, which triggers secondary movements for others.

The Choice: Buy a horse for its special ability or buy up betting squares on your grid. It feels a bit cramped with the tiny markers, but the betting works well.
