How it plays
-
01
Race the route
The slope is a branching course. Faster lines are riskier lines, and everyone can see which one you're eyeing.
-
02
Manage the hand
Your cards are your legs: spend big early and the last stretch will hurt. Racing is rationing.
-
03
Special cards (in rework)
A layer of special moves is being redesigned to add drama without adding rules weight.

Downhill is a hand-management race down a branching mountain course — a family-weight design about spending exactly as much as you must and never more.
Development is paused while the special-cards layer gets rebuilt; the core race loop is done and plays fast.
