Unboxing Thursdays: Heat: Pedal to the Metal & Tanto Cuore

Unboxing Thursdays we open, learn and play two games as we add them to our library.

This Thursday we are playing and learning together, Heat: Pedal to the Metal & Tanto Cuore.

Heat: Pedal to the Metal - 8.0

Based on simple and intuitive hand management, Heat: Pedal to the Metal puts players in the driver's seat of intense car races, jockeying for position to cross the finish line first while managing their car's speed if they don't want to overheat. Selecting the right upgrades for their car will help them hug the curves and keep their engine cool enough to maintain top speeds. Ultimately, their driving skills will be the key to victory!

Drivers can compete in a single race or use the "Championship System" to play a whole season in one game night, customizing their car before each race to claim the top spot of the podium. They have to be careful as the weather, road conditions, and events will change every race to spice up their championship. Players can also enjoy a solo mode with the Legends Module or add automated drivers as additional opponents in multiplayer games.

Tanto Cuore: 6.9

Tanto Cuore is a Japanese deck-building card game that has a mechanism similar to Dominion.

Each player plays as the Lord of a mansion and hires maids to fill out their house to become the King of Maids! The end goal is simple enough, the player who has the most Victory Points at the end of the game wins! Players acquire Victory Points by employing a variety of maids and "Love" cards that allow for different strategies. You can even employ Private Maids that stick around to use their special powers each per turn! Some give you a bonus or affect your opponents in a negative way. But beware, your opponents can make your maids sick or give them bad habits, affecting your maids in negative ways and decreasing your Victory Points!

The game art is in the Japanese anime style and uses the theme of maids commonly seen in anime! All of the cards, dividers, and manual fit into an easy-to-transport box so you can easily take the game with you wherever you want.
