Description

5 Minute Chase is a fast-paced game where 2 to 4 players take on the roles of runners and chasers in a real-time tile placement challenge. The runners are trying to escape from prison and make their way back to their hideout, while the chasers are hot on their heels, trying to catch them before they get away. With no turns to slow down the action, all players are frantically placing tiles and tokens at the same time, making for a thrilling and chaotic experience. The game is easy to learn, but the excitement and tension come from the asymmetric objectives and win conditions. The runners need to outsmart the chasers and reach their hideout to win, while the chasers must use their wits to catch the runners before they escape. With playtime lasting only 5 to 15 minutes, 5 Minute Chase is the perfect game for a quick adrenaline fix, and its simple rules make it accessible to players of all ages and skill levels.
