In Athlètes de compète (FR), the finish line is never as close as it seems. Every racer comes with a unique and ridiculous ability capable of completely changing the outcome of a race. From Banana tripping opponents to Huge Baby refusing to share space and Centaur kicking rivals backward, every race becomes a chain of unexpected twists and hilarious moments.

Before the competition begins, players draft a team of four racers from a colourful cast of strange and memorable characters. Before each race, everyone secretly chooses which racer to send onto the track. Races alternate between the Mild and Wild sides of the board, creating different challenges and rewarding clever planning. After four races, the player with the most points wins the championship.

You will enjoy Athlètes de compète if you love family board games, unpredictable situations, lighthearted sabotage, and exciting finishes. The rules are simple enough for younger players, while the interactions between racer powers create endless surprises that keep every game fresh.

Interesting fact: Athlètes de compète is the new edition of Magical Athlete, a beloved racing game originally designed by Takashi Ishida and updated by Richard Garfield, creator of Magic: The Gathering. The game was nominated for multiple 2025 Golden Geek Awards, including Best Light Game and Best Party Game.

Designed by Takashi Ishida and Richard Garfield, with vibrant artwork by Angela Kirkwood, every racer features a unique personality and special ability. Fans of racing games, chaotic interactions, and accessible strategy will find plenty to love in this fast-paced and highly replayable experience.
