Milestones

## Description

_Milestones_ is an adaptation of the card game Mille Bornes. It’s for one
player who competes against an AI opponent. The game is made up of a number of
races, each 700 miles in length, and the aim is to reach the finish line
before the opponent. After each race points are earned and the object of the
game is to first reach 5000 points.

The player has seven cards and has for each turn three options: playing a
card, discarding a card or playing a coup fourre. The chosen card is then
removed and another one is given. There are four kinds of cards: distance,
problem, fix and power cards. Distance cards are used to drive the amount of
miles listed on them but first a roll card must be played to get going.
Problem cards are used to stop the opponent’s car who has to play the
corresponding fix card followed by a roll card to start moving again. For
example, the repair card fixes the accident card and the spare tire fixes the
flat tire. Power cards when played make the player immune to some of the
problem cards. A coup fourre is when the power card is played right after the
opponent plays the corresponding problem card.
