Mountains

Peak

 

On mountain hiking tours, you complete day treks and are rewarded with summit stamps in your book.

The board for six day hikes is laid out, day trek cards are sorted by level of difficulty and every player receives 3, 4, 6 or 8 equipment cards in case of 5, 4, 3 or 2 players, and also eight blue favor stones. Yellow favor stones are worth five blue ones.

As active player you turn over a day trek card in your preferred level of difficulty and to complete the trek you put down the cards for the equipment items depicted on the card, one card per item. If you are missing one or several equipment items, you can borrow them from another player. You give him a blue favor stone and ask for the item you need. If he has this item in hand – he must tell the truth – he puts it down. He keeps the favor stone, even if he does not have the item in hand. You can ask for items as often as you want, as long as you can over a favor stone. If you have the necessary items on the table from your hand or thanks to borrowing, you receive favor stones and a summit stamp as a reward. The day trek card goes under its stack and all players take their equipment item cards back in hand. If you decide on a day of rest and do not draw a day trek card, you take three blue favor stones from stock. If you turn up a Special card, all players have the option to buy equipment or summit stamps by discarding favor stones. When two stacks of day trek cards level 3-5 are used up, you win with most summit stamps.

Very nice! An attractive family game using memory and a little bit of bluff; the well-working borrowing mechanism provides frustration-free collecting.
