Giro Galoppo is a horse racing card game for players aged 6 and up, featuring mechanics similar to "Ave Caesar." Players take turns placing obstacles and then simultaneously choose cards from their identical sets numbered 1-6. The player with the lowest card value moves first, potentially pushing others back, while avoiding obstacles that would result in losing their turn.
