{"title":"Artist: Cécile Gariépy","description":"\u003cp\u003eCécile Gariépy brings bold graphic sensibility to tabletop design through confident use of vivid color palettes and geometric abstraction. In \u003cstrong\u003eHot Streak\u003c\/strong\u003e, her artwork employs the CMYK color model as both aesthetic framework and thematic anchor, creating visual tension between print-production precision and playful spontaneity. Gariépy's compositions favor clean lines, high contrast, and layered shapes that guide the eye while maintaining energetic movement across card faces and boards.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis collection suits players who appreciate when visual design reinforces gameplay mechanics, particularly in quick-playing competitive titles where clarity matters as much as style. Groups seeking games where art feels integral rather than decorative will find Gariépy's approach refreshingly purposeful, blending mid-century modern influences with contemporary illustration techniques that work equally well at two players or six.\u003c\/p\u003e","products":[{"product_id":"hot-streak","title":"Hot Streak","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHot Streak\u003c\/strong\u003e is a chaotic racing and betting game where mascots sprint, stumble, and swerve their way to the finish line—sometimes running backwards or knocking each other over in the process. Players aren't racing themselves; instead, they're placing bets on which unpredictable mascot will cross the line first, second, third, or fourth. The twist? Everyone secretly adds a card to the racing deck each round, injecting chaos and strategy into every race.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eEach of three races begins with players drafting betting tickets—safe bets pay modest returns, but risky bets offer bigger payouts (or painful losses). Then you pick one card from your hand to shuffle into the racing deck. As cards flip, mascots charge forward, switch lanes, turn around, or even trigger mass movements. Fallen racers get disqualified if hit again, and the track becomes a glorious mess of chance and calculated mischief. After three races, the player with the most money wins.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWith support for 2–8 players and races wrapping up in about 20 minutes, \u003cstrong\u003eHot Streak\u003c\/strong\u003e is a fast, family-friendly bluffing game that rewards both sharp drafting and gleeful sabotage. Perfect for party nights or quick-play sessions with kids and casual gamers.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"CMYK","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":58443900256640,"sku":null,"price":37.5,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1003\/9505\/7536\/files\/pic8933083.jpg?v=1783971141"}],"url":"https:\/\/mpgames.io\/collections\/artist-cecile-gariepy.oembed","provider":"MPGames","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
