Description Description

1953: Everest transports players into one of the last great adventures of the twentieth century: the race to conquer the highest mountain on Earth. After decades of failed attempts through Tibet and years of geopolitical upheaval, a narrow passage opens through Nepal. Nations mobilize resources, recruit climbers and sherpa teams, and prepare expeditions to reach a place where no human has ever set foot.

Each player guides a national expedition with a single objective: to be the first to reach the summit of Everest.

During the game, players build their climb step by step, transforming a growing mountain of cards into both the path to the summit and the infrastructure necessary to support it. Resources must be transported upward, camps must be established, equipment secured and key moments chosen carefully before weather conditions worsen and the monsoon forces everyone down.

Over a limited number of weeks, expeditions compete and adapt to changing conditions, balancing long-term preparation with the urgency of the climb. Every decision shapes the mountain itself: where to establish support, when to advance and which climber will attempt the final assault. Efficient logistics, timing and tactical use of cards are essential to overcome the mountain and write your expedition into history.
