How to Play
The objective of the game is to be the first player to reach the final space on the board.
- Players take turns spinning the rotary wheel.
- Move your Hot Wheels figure forward the number of spaces indicated by the spinner.
- Follow the instructions on the space where your figure lands. These may include moving forward, moving backward, losing a turn, or other actions.
- If you land on a space already occupied by another player, the player who was there first must move back to their previous space.
Special Spaces
The game board features various special spaces that can affect your progress. Pay attention to these spaces as they can change the course of the race.
- Bonus Spaces (Turbo, Hot Wheels Logo): Landing on these spaces typically grants an advantage, such as moving extra spaces forward or taking another turn.
- Malus Spaces (Pothole, Stop Sign/Red Light): Landing on these spaces usually results in a disadvantage, such as losing a turn, moving backward, or waiting for a specific condition.
