Product detailed description

Summit: The Board Game

Thanks to the double-sided game board and variable mechanisms, the game can be played competitively, cooperatively, or solo.

In competitive play, players race up and down the deadly mountain, managing their resources, building their path, overcoming obstacles, and trying to outlive their opponents. Summit utilizes a unique karma system that allows players to actively help or hinder their opponents - but also affects scoring at the end of the game. For a few extra points, you can share some of your valuable food or oxygen, or maybe you can afford to lose a few points, so you decide to cut their rope and watch them disappear down the mountain.

In cooperative or solo play, players must now work together to conquer the mountain and survive the expedition. Summit is a game so exhausting that only one team member is needed to survive the ascent and descent, so players can sacrifice themselves for the good of the team. The mountain features an added "sherpa route" and "daytime route" and also a completely new deck of cards. It is unlikely that everyone will return from this expedition.

With over 190 unique cards, nearly 100 tiles, unique resource management, and tracking on two-layer asymmetric player mats, as well as the ability to customize the difficulty and length of the game, Summit guarantees that you will never play the same game twice!
