Product Information

Each player chooses a colour and takes a pair of bike and rider miniatures, the player board, and the set of energy cards in that colour.

I have been told there is an expansion coming out soon and I would very much like to see what that adds to an already great game. Separate your Sprinter “S” and Rouleur “R” energy cards, shuffle, and place them face down on the spaces on your player board. Riders can jump over other riders and also change lanes. Where possible, your rider should finish their turn in the right-hand lane, marked by a double white line. For the purpose of movement and winning, the right-hand lane is deemed to be in the lead. Flamme Rouge is a game about early 20th- century bicycle races, and I promise you, it is a lot more fun than that sounds. Mountain Ascents– If you start on, enter, or move through and ascent square (marked in red) movement is capped at five.The excitement in the air is electric as the leaders round the last corner and head for the finish line. Each team has used cunning and skill to position their sprinter for this moment, but only one has done enough to pull off the win! It's always an excellent service with brilliant products at a very competitive price - will use again! In the end everyone who has played this game has enjoyed it. Flamme Rouge is a game I hope to get to the table often as its very fun and easy to teach with added depth that can be included if needed. I would say this sits in between the games I mentioned above and has a place in my collection.

Flamme Rouge is a hand management, racing game designed by Asger Harding Granerud and publish by Lautapelit.fi.

The game ends at the end of the round where at least one rider had crossed the finish line. The owner of the rider that is farthest over the line is the winner. Adding to this is the fact that you want your sprinteur to at least get some slipstreaming action from your rouleur so generally you want your sprinteur to have a value one less than your rouleur. But yet again, you may not get the cards you need.
