About the game

What is Biathlon Blast?

Race past rivals, manage your pulse, and hit every target in Biathlon Blast, the skiing and shooting strategy game for 2 to 6 players. Choose a uniquely skilled biathlete, draft behind opponents, and adapt to shifting wind conditions as you blast through snow-covered trails. Each round, a dual-action card sets your speed, affects your pulse, and alters the wind. The faster you go, the harder it is to shoot, but nailing your shots gives you powerful momentum. With intuitive, language-independent gameplay and ever-changing conditions, Biathlon Blast delivers rich interaction, tough decisions, and an unforgettable story with every game. No two races are ever alike, except for one thing: Only one will be crowned champion! —description from the publisher
