  1. 7 out of 10

    First play impressions. Lovely racing game. It feels like a roll & write and frankly, that works for this game. There's some fun tension with the horse-buying and betting. Obviously it's pretty random with the dice, but I think there's enough 'tricks' to allow some strategy to shine through and to give it some crunch. I like that this version is quite short, which makes it fit the niche of 'light fun game after a big game' quite well.

    The game offers everything I wanted from Camel Cup, only even better: excitement, chaos, risk and fun. A great game.

  3. 5 out of 10

    May not replace Fleet the Dice Game as my dice roll and write pub go-to. A bit chaotic as people (non-gamers especially) learn what is meant by Jersey action. The folks in my game group are referring to this as “more complicated Camel Up”. They seem to land this at a solid 6. I am struggling to really enjoy this one. I even had a turn where, through horse abilities, I was able to close out 2 rows and 2 columns in the concession stand. One would think that would feel totally rewarding and combotastic, but it didn’t. Can see why another commenter likened the end game to a random shuffle. For some reason our games take longer than the 30 minutes that others are reporting. Our games are tending to be more like 60 minutes. Another comment I read that made sense is that while there are many dials to turn with this game, none really seem to do anything different.

This is your ticket to the track!

In Long Shot: The Dice Game, you and up to seven other players will strategize and push your luck as the action unfolds in a tense race of eight horses. During the game you buy horses, place bets, influence race movement, and utilize special abilities. The roll of the dice determines which horses move and the options available each turn, so be ready to adapt your plans. Once three horses cross the finish line, earnings are totaled. While there are many ways to earn money during a horse race, only the player that makes the most money will be declared the winner. Will you play it safe, or risk it big on a long shot?
