In Magical Athlete, the track is alive with laughter, chaos, and outrageous twists. Each player drafts a team of bizarre magical racers, from cunning witches to fearless giants, each with a unique special power that can turn the tide of the race in a heartbeat.

On your turn, roll the die and move your racer—simple, right? Not quite. Every ability breaks the rules in wild and unpredictable ways, keeping everyone on their toes until the finish line. The game unfolds over multiple races, alternating between the “mild” and “wild” sides of the board, where only the top finishers score points.

Strategy meets absurdity in a contest where luck, timing, and a little mischief make all the difference. After the final race, the player with the most points wins eternal bragging rights as the ultimate Magical Athlete!

You’ll love Magical Athlete if you enjoy fast, funny racing games filled with laughter, surprises, and crazy powers. Perfect for lively game nights, family gatherings, or party sessions where everyone’s in it for the fun rather than the glory.

Fun fact: Originally designed in Japan by Takashi Ishida, Magical Athlete became a cult classic for its unpredictable energy and pure replay value. This new edition from CMYK (the publisher behind Wavelength) brings the same chaotic charm in a bold, colourful small-box format.

Created by Takashi Ishida with creative input from Richard Garfield (Magic: The Gathering), and illustrated by Angela Kirkwood, this edition blends minimal components with striking visuals and boundless humour.
