Race to the Raft

Race to the Raft is a cooperative path building and tile placement board game that combines clever puzzles with tense teamwork. Players take on the role of lost island cats trying to escape a smoke filled island by creating safe routes to a waiting raft. The island is unstable, the paths are unclear, and danger spreads quickly, so every decision matters.

As players place pathway cards to guide the cats, fire tiles spread across the board in unpredictable ways. The growing flames block routes and force constant adaptation, creating a challenging balance between building long efficient paths and keeping the cats safely ahead of the fire. Success depends on communication, planning, and shared problem solving.

The game features a large collection of carefully designed scenarios that scale in complexity. A gentle tutorial introduces the core concepts step by step, while advanced challenges push players to master the system and think several moves ahead. Each scenario offers a fresh puzzle with new layouts, obstacles, and strategic demands.

With its strong cooperative focus, evolving challenges, and elegant puzzle design, Race to the Raft delivers a rewarding experience where teamwork and smart planning are the keys to guiding every cat safely to freedom.
