Heat: Pedal to the Metal
Heat: Pedal to the Metal
Based on simple and intuitive hand management, Heat: Pedal to the Metal puts players in the driver's seat of intense car races, jockeying for position to cross the finish line first, while managing their car's speed if they don't want to overheat. Selecting the right upgrades for their car will help them hug the curves and keep their engine cool enough to maintain top speeds. Ultimately, their driving skills will be the key to victory!
Drivers can compete in a single race or use the "Championship System" to play a whole season in one game night, customizing their car before each race to claim the top spot of the podium. They have to be careful as the weather, road conditions, and events will change every race to spice up their championship. Players can also enjoy a solo mode with the Legends Module or add automated drivers as additional opponents in multiplayer games.

Heat is my favorite game at the moment, and I really can’t think of anything bad to say about it. It has the perfect amount of randomness, mitigated by the ability to discard your hand, that creates incredibly tense moments of not knowing how far other players or even your own car will go. Heat’s quick to set up (a few minutes with modules) which is great because it gets played more often than any other game I know. Everyone I’ve played with at least liked it, and most loved it.
Teachability
One of the only games I can play with both casual and hobby gamers. It’s incredibly easy to learn while still having depth and replayability. It’s my favorite game with all groups I play with, and the box has seen dozens of hours of play within a few weeks of purchase.
Value
Heat comes with what feels like several expansions on top of a base game, all in the same $80 box, so it’s pretty good value for your money.
