Santa has an opening for Head Reindeer, and he's organized a contest for four reindeer to show off their speed, endurance, and leadership skills as they attempt to lead their team to victory.

In Reindeer Races, you'll control a team of four reindeer, racing along five modular paths to try to get the highest-scoring tiles. You can play any number of matching cards from your hand to move your reindeer, but you should always be on the lookout for opportunities to use action spaces on the paths or even other reindeer to your advantage. Once all of the tiles have been taken from one of the paths, the player who has collected the highest total number of points wins the game.

Ever since that one foggy Christmas Eve, the guy with the red nose has gotten all of the attention, but if you play your cards right, perhaps this is the year we'll be singing about Stuart, the Silver-Nosed Reindeer!
