Downforce.
Downforce is a fast-paced, high stakes racing and betting game based on the 1996 Spiel des Jahres award winning game, Top Race
Downforce isn’t any ordinary racing game. First, players must bid to acquire their car. After the auction you will play cards from your hand to help your car speed its way around the track. Secret betting during the race keeps all players immersed in the game even if your car isn’t looking like it will cross the finish line first.
The winner of Downforce is not necessarily the person whose car wins the race. Instead the person who has the most money from winning bets and prize money combined will be crowned. the victor.
