Hike! is a light and fast game in which players take on the role of mushers (dog drivers) competing in a dog sledding race. First, they assemble their husky sleds and prepare the equipment they will need for the race. They hand-pick the huskies for their abilities and pay special attention to where in the sled they place them to form a strong and harmonized team. And then, the race is on! Who will have the winning tactics and whose team will perform best in the treacherous terrain? The first one across the finish line is the winner!
Events and Traits Expansion. It adds a hefty deck of 68 cards to the gameplay. It includes trait cards that players get at the beginning of the game and that give them asymmetric starting positions, and event cards that add another layer to card drafting and present players with more options in the race phase. Event cards are divided into two groups – the majority of them are events that only influence the race track or the player that played them, and there are 12 event cards that include more player interaction and a bit of ‘take that’ element. Players can decide if they want these last 12 events part of the game or not. The cards include text in English.
