Up & Away
Requirements
Description
It's 1890 and a challenge has been issued to individuals daring enough to push the limits of travel higher into the atmosphere than previously thought possible.
The object of the game is to fly your balloon to the highest level of the atmosphere before your opponent. In order to do so, you will have to increase your skill while also managing the intensity of your fire and guiding your balloon.
On their turn, players roll two dice and can either add the total to their skill level, or increase the intensity of their fire by claiming fuel that matches the number rolled.
Players must then fly their balloon by lifting, drifting, or sinking it. Lifting costs skill points and you can only travel as high as your fire intensity allows. Drifting allows you to float with the wind and sinking makes you lose progress.
There are rewards that you can claim on your journey upward, including the ability to gain a third die, the ability to ignore the wind direction when drifting, and the ability to claim fuel for free.
Only the most skilled navigator will make it to the top and win!
