Keep your eyes peeled for route-themed questions, and stay on track with navigation instructions. The goal? To collect points, race to the top of the leaderboard, and claim victory by the end of the day.

Before you hit the road, there are a few essential items you’ll need to get started:
2-5 players (all in one vehicle)
