Tornado Rex is a board game from the 1990s whose main objective is to be the first player to get all your climbers to the top of the mountain and then back to the base. Players must move their pieces across spaces determined by a spinner, but they must avoid the Tornado Rex, a spinning piece that descends the mountain and can knock the climbers off their spaces, forcing them to start the journey all over again.

Tips for playing

Here are some tips for doing better in the game Tornado Rex:

• Plan your route in advance, minimizing the time spent in risky areas where the Tornado Rex may appear.

GAME mechanics

• Push your luck: In Tornado Rex, this mechanic encourages players to take calculated risks. During the game, participants have the option of advancing their pawns towards the top of the mountain, but they must be aware of the imminent danger of Tornado Rex, which could be unleashed at any moment. Strategic advancement involves deciding when to move quickly and when to choose a safer route. The Tornado Rex is released by specific cards which, when drawn by a player, activate the Tornado Rex pawn, which descends the mountain knocking down any player in its path, forcing them to return to the start or to a save point further down the mountain. The mechanics of "Force Your Luck" stand out precisely in this balance between being aggressive in advancing to victory and being cautious to avoid being caught by the Tornado Rex. Success in the game depends on knowing how to deal with this tension, maximizing progress while minimizing the risks of being surprised by Tornado Rex's steamroller.
