Homas Tour
This PC version allows you to play against 3 other opponents, any of whom can be computer-controlled. Like the original board game, Homas Tour manages to capture the feel of the bicycle race quite well, while adding many twists that make it very interesting. In my opinion, the best of these 'twists' is the choice of track: players are slowed down at hills or bad roads, and there will always be the chance of a crash which might make them loose precious time. You even can make use of the possibility to cheat, or allow the assistance car to 'drag' your drivers - if you can accept the risk of this being captured on film, which will lead to disqualification. A good mix of luck (via die rolls and event cards) and strategy (many options during the race), Homas Tour is a must-have for every bicycle fan and fans of simple-but-fun sports-themed boardgames. Thumbs up!
