Description

The Genius: Horror Race is essentially a racing game. There are five "racers": Vampire, Frozen Corpse, Nine-Tailed Fox, Mummy, and Zombie. Each racer will compete on a track of twelve spaces.

At the beginning of the game, each player is dealt with five "racer" tokens, one for each kind of racer. Among them, the player secretly chooses two and discards the rest. All the discarded tokens form a central pool which will be used for moving the racer.

Each player, turn by turn, takes three tokens out of the pool and place those tokens on one of the three spots on the board: "Move 1," "Move 2," and "Move 4." For instance, a player took two Mummy tokens and one Vampire token from the pool, and places a Mummy token on the "Move 2" spot and the remainder on the "Move 4" spot.

After all the players have taken three tokens out of the pool and placed them on the board, the racer whose tokens wins the untied majority in each spot will move accordingly. For example, if there are 2 Vampire tokens, 1 Nine-Tailed Fox token, 3 Mummy tokens, and 3 Zombie tokens on the "Move 1" spot, only the Vampire will move 1 space.

After a round, all used tokens are taken back to the pool and the next round proceeds in the same manner. The game ends when a racer passes the finish line. Whoever bet for the first racer is awarded 3 points, second, 2 points, and the third, 1 point. The player with the most points wins the game.
