Riptide Rally

Draft four swimmers. Race four heats. Break every rule.

Riptide Rally is a free racing board game you play in your browser. Each player drafts a team of four sea creatures, then races one in each of four heats. Every swimmer has a power that bends the rules: the Pufferjet puffs ahead, the Manta Rave pulls everyone toward its party, and Big Blue won't share its space with anyone.
