Race to the Raft ~ the co-op (!) we can't stop playing π| Kickstarter Board Game Preview
250It's time to help out the Cats of the Isle of Cats again! This time they're in a race against time to get to the only raft before the whole island is engulfed in flames. But these cats won't just walk on any path - even in the face of danger they will only walk on their preferred terrain type. They're difficult but we love them anyway, so let's work together to fix these paths and get them out safe and sound.
Note: This is an unpaid preview with a prototype provided by The City of Games. All rules and components are subject to change.

Thanks for stopping by for our mechanics & theme board game preview of Race to the Raft. We're Amy & Maggie aka ThinkerThemer. We're an Australian couple with two very different perspectives of what makes a great board game - Amy (Thinker) is all about the mechanics and enjoys tight, competitive games, and Maggie (Themer) is all about the storytelling and the theme of the game, and the 'world' that the designer is trying to create. Subscribe to our channel to hear us talk about these two elements of a game, and how well integrated we feel these are in delivering a cohesive and wonderful game experience.
