I have only played the Japan track so far and found it unique and challenging. The water on the corners change up the cornering strategies. I also like that the game has a fairly good handicap system, if you find that someone is just racing ahead and winning all the time, have them start with one less heat card.
I think it was a major missed opportunity to add more weather options and tokens. One could be “heavy rain” and then they give you translucent water tokens to place on some corners of every map or something.
I don't think this is a great expansion. it doesn't do enough to add enough variety. An expansion like this should hit the theme hard and you are right there isn't enough heavy rain in Heat heavy rain. Always such detailed reviews!
Great review. Makes me want to reread the rules on the base game and get another game going on bga. The only thing is you have this game wired and you seem to win every game 😂
Thanks for the review Brad, it's time to get that expansion!
Haha I love the explosions intermittently added in! Kept me in the moment!
Thanks!
@@BadatBoardgames of course! Loved the b-roll, I know it’s a lot of work but definitely adds to the video!
Ya I haven’t done much lately but it is fun when I have some good ideas

Ya I really enjoy the Japan track it may actually be my favorite of all the tracks lol. Didn’t think about that kind of handicap system great idea!

Ya that’s a good idea and you could use it on the other tracks!

Thanks glad you liked the review! I really wish they had another water track like japan for sure.
Time stamp reads FASN BOY OF HEAT :D
lol
Oops
I love this game and bought the expansion mainly for the additional player.
Yes this game seems fit for 8 players I am expecting another expansion since they had 2 open car spots in the main game.
@@BadatBoardgames were you able to fit this expansion into the original box?
@ryanlohman4922 yes there is a little box lift because of the extra map but not much

One of the games I am actually good at
Lol
@@BadatBoardgames for some
Reason I tend to do well at lost cities.
@bestatstartrek2179 yes yes you do lol
I want to play this, but I mostly solo or 2p. I'm going to see if I can get it for a steal secondhand when it's not so hot anymore. 😂
I really like this game solo still feels like other players are in the game and and easy AI.
I was hoping for slip n slide racing…
Ya it’s not really that at all sadly.
