Chariot Race: Das große Wagenrennen

Description

Masses of people awaiting a spectacle… scorching afternoon heat… sweaty equine bodies nervously yanking their harnesses. There it is, the starting signal! Dashing ahead with your chariot, slowly at first, but quickly gaining speed… circling the spina in the center of the arena to complete the first lap. The next corner comes closer. Glancing back, one of the chariots is already far behind, and just ahead another chariot's speed is too high for the corner, sending the vehicle crashing into the wall and out of the race. Only a single chariot blocks your path to victory. It's time to get uncivilized. Steadily you balance the javelin in your hand, waiting for the other charioteer to come into view…or should you just overtake him and throw caltrops in his path? In Chariot Race: Das große Wagenrennen, players participate as charioteers in a great race in ancient Rome. Use the dice to complete two laps on the dusty arena’s circuit and be the first to steer your chariot over the finish line. You will accelerate, brake, and skillfully change lanes. Sometimes you will even attack your opponents: either directly by hurling javelins or indirectly by dropping caltrops in their path. If the favor of Fortuna is with you, you can repair your chariot right in the middle of the race, which is often desperately needed.
