What Tabletop Games Have You Played Recently?

What it says on the tin! Discuss games you've played recently here: TTRPGs, board games, card games, take your pick. I figured this should be a separate topic from a "recent video games" thread, which I'll leave for someone else to make just so I don't make too many threads =v=
I recently played Rallyman: DIRT while at some friends of mine's house over the weekend! It can be played with other people or solo

You roll dice to see who can get the fastest track time on the board. There are dice for the numbers 1-6 representing speed, two white coast dice, two orange coast dice, and one red break dice. You have to place dice numbers in order (1, 2, 3, ect) on the board, using your coasting dice to maintain that speed, but can choose to use the break dice to jump down (but not up) more than one digit. Each die has 1-2 warning symbols, and if you get 3 of them in a single turn you'll waste time and possibly damage your car depending on how fast you're going.
Its necessary to adjust your speed and not always go at 6 because of the turns, where your car can only be at or below a certain speed or else risk a crash. Also, you can choose to roll all your dice at once to earn tokens that can be used to guarantee a good roll or to shave seconds off your race time at the end of the round, but rolling one at a time means you can end your turn if you get two warning rolls. There's several other features too, but I'd take up too much time explaining them all.
It's really fun!! I'm not too good at summarizing, admittedly, but hopefully I could get enough of it across =v=;;. There's a lot of strategization to picking what dice you'll roll and measuring the worth of risky but beneficial moves. I definitely recommend it if you can get your hands on it!
