Dustbiters is a quick and furious card game about rival car gangs racing to outrun a giant dust storm.
Last car standing wins! It's 100 miles an hour in the dirt and you're gonna need all the cunning, trickery and horsepower you've got!
Dustbiters is a two player card game where each player controls several cars in a convoy. The goal is to destroy (or outlast) all of your opponents cars.
During a turn the player has 3 actions that can be spent in several ways, each costing one action:
Draw a new car into your hand.
Place a new car at the front of the convoy.
Drive a car one space forward or one space backward.
Use a car power. Each car is unique, has different abilities, and affects the cars around it in different ways.
But beware, at the end of each turn the car at the back is destroyed by the dust storm!

Quotes (from this video)
- It is an excellent production. It is everything you've come to maybe know and love about Neuroshima Hex.
- Outstanding, man. I love this trick-T game that also includes set collection.
- Disappointing. This is basically Forbidden Island, the card game with too few spaces and a little too much swinginess.
