Downtown Chase

Everyone in town has a bone to pick with Johnny the Quick. In Downtown Chase you roam the streets hunting for this man nobody can stand. But watch out: you are not only playing against Johnny, you are also playing against each other. It is a semi-cooperative game in which everyone wants to catch the same man, but nobody wants to give anyone else the glory. You move across the board and draw cards from three decks. That way you try to reach the right spot with the right weapon in hand. Get close enough to Johnny and you strike on a separate board: the Assassination Chart. There your weapon and your dice decide whether you manage to take him out. Johnny is not controlled by a player; he moves through the city on his own with a combination of rolls. Land on the same space as another player and a brawl breaks out in the middle of the street. Every character has their own abilities that become stronger with the right card. The game lasts ten rounds. Whoever gets Johnny first wins. If nobody manages it, the points decide who is boss. Whether you play alone or with up to four people, expect about ninety minutes full of tension, tricks and a chase you won't forget any time soon.
