More on the rules in a second. There is a stack of flyers, each with a different, really amazing bit of digital artwork on the front and a set of directions to get you to a rave on the back. We have two sets of cards, dance cards and vibe cards, in full playing card size and good quality. Finally, there are brightly illustrated cardboard playing pieces with plastic stands. Rave is a game for two to six players, sixteen years and up.
Players tour the city's dance clubs collecting flyers.
When they spot a rave that looks fun they follow the clues on the back of the flyer until they find out where the rave is taking place. They then try to make their way to the rave before it gets busted by the roaming police helicopter and car. After each move they draw a vibe card which could be good news but also controls the movement of the police. But if they use up all of their, err, Energy tablets they'll have to make a run to the ATM for more money and a run to the Warehouse District for more tablets. The dance cards are a lot of fun and ask you to do all sorts of silly things which makes this a very good beer and pretzel game - heavy on the beer.
