Add a weather dimension and new challenges to your races with Heat: Heavy Rain, the first expansion for the game Heat. You will discover two new circuits (Japan and Mexico), now subject to heavy rain or slippery conditions. In addition, new event and upgrade cards enrich the strategy: the "air intake" allows for more efficient engine cooling.
The expansion also offers an additional player, intensifying the competition.

How to play Heat: Heavy Rain?
Game Setup
- Place the large double-sided board for the two new tracks (Japan / Mexico).
- Add the new race car and gear shift lever included in the box.
- Combine the new cards (Heat, Stress, Events, Sponsor, "Air Intake" Upgrade) with those from the base game.
- If you are playing in championship mode, integrate the new "Heavy Rain" events.
Gameplay outline
- The expansion plays like the base game: players choose their speed, play cards, manage "Heat", and move their race car.
- With Heavy Rain, some sections of the tracks (especially in Japan) are flooded: downshifting costs more heat.
- “Air Intake” cards allow you to cool your engine more efficiently by recycling Heat cards.
- New event cards impact the race (extreme weather, penalties, opportunities), and a 7th driver can now join the game.
Win/Loss Condition
- The victory conditions remain the same as in Heat: the first player to cross the finish line on the track wins the race.
- In Championship mode, new events influence the overall ranking.
Poor management of overheating can penalize you: if you don't use the "air intake" well or neglect cooling, your efficiency can suffer greatly.
Our Tips for Winning
-
Adjust your driving to the weather conditions
On flooded circuits, downshifting costs more in overheating: anticipate high-risk sectors and manage your "heat" accordingly.
-
Use the 'air intake' cards wisely
These cards are valuable: they allow you to put Heat cards back into your engine or discard pile. Use them at the right time, especially after "hot" phases.
-
Take advantage of the 7th player for more interaction
With the expansion, you can play with 7 players: more drivers mean more traffic, slipstream opportunities, and moments of strategic tension.
