Nice Ice (5+) is a sunny racing game by Haba where meerkats in soapbox cars time their overtakes to reach the ice-cream truck first, in short, lively rounds.
How do you play the game?
Each player picks a colour and races their meerkat towards the ice-cream truck. Using the soapbox pieces, you create a variable track and play your cards to speed up, shift positions, or overtake at exactly the right moment when traffic builds up. Timing matters: push too early and you get stuck; hesitate and someone slips past. Because the track changes and card decisions are different each time, every game feels fresh while the rules stay easy for kids to grasp.
Why is this game recommended?
Nice Ice is a kids racing game (great as a family game too) that packs real tactical choices into a small box with a fun summer theme.
