About the Game

Race around on a mine cart collecting treasure, stealing eggs, and running from dragons!

In Cartastrophe, you are a Dwarf in search of treasure. Lay the tracks as you whip around in your mine cart through the labyrinth, picking up loot, including priceless Dragon Eggs! But once you steal an egg, Mama goes out for the hunt. Outrun the dragons and collect the most treasure to win!

Each turn, attach one new tile to the tracks already placed onto the play area. Place treasure tokens onto the matching icons of the newly placed tile.

Then move your cart three spaces, following the tracks, picking up any treasure tokens you pass over.

Use collected Nitro tokens to move additional spaces, or place one of your few bonus tiles to help maneuver through the maze.

If you have taken the risk and stolen a Dragon Egg, the player to your left will move the marching Dragon standee in an attempt to get their egg back! The Dragon's speed increases every turn.

Collect matching treasure sets, evade the Dragons, and have the most points at the end of the game to win!
