On your turn, perform one of three possible actions: Rest, Prepare, or Climb. Take one of your larger action cubes and place it in the furtherest left open spot on your player mat.

Rest: When you need to regain your energy for your next climb, chose the Rest action. Then, travel to any continent and either gain energy up to your stamina or gain [2] energy.

Prepare: If you are in need of more mountain passes or gear such as a tent or carabiner, choose the Prepare action.

Climb: If you believe you are ready to scale the heights, choose to Climb. Make sure you meet all the requirements, chose between two sets of rewards, and get your engine going! The goal is to plant those flags all over the globe!

Pay attention to what others are planning, as you'll be able to "tag along" on their climb and reap the benefits they didn't choose. There's no room for "down time" in PEAKS.

As the game progresses, you'll earn experience so you can conquer the more difficult climbs and earn even bigger rewards!

Things really start ramping up as you unlock upgrades that allow you to perform additional steps in each of the three actions. Remember those larger cubes mentioned earlier? 

Once you have three of them sitting above a particular action, you can remove all action cubes to gain the associated bonus: Gain [1] permanent stamina, upgrade an action die or place a flag on the board/move three experience spaces.

Along your expedition, you'll meet friendly faces. These Companions will assist during your climbs by lending gear, sharing experience, and boosting your energy. 

Play concludes when one player positions their final flag on the game map. All other players with flags still remaining get one more turn.

Whoever has the most flags across all continents, including end game bonus flags earned through area majority and private objective cards, takes the victory!

Mass Production Update + Import Tariffs

2025-02-11 19:18:26

Hello friends!

Here's just a quick update to share three things:

  1. Mass production has resumed as team members are returning from the Chinese New Year break. Super exciting! As mentioned previously, product will be ready to ship around March 20, of course this could fluctuate depending on approval of the mass production samples. We feel you are going to be quite pleased.

  2. Those who pledged the Alpinist Lite Level and will have a companion in your likeness in your copy of the game - you will be receiving this card via media mail and it will more than likely arrive before the game. We didn't want to risk having a HUB take care of sending this with your copy as they don't look at names and pledges, just orders, barcodes, and locations. Too many chances something could go wrong.

  3. Finally, the current administration has imposed 10% tariffs on anything coming into the US from China - this includes board games (toys). Seeing as we are in the middle of production/fulfillment, we are at an impasse and there is no way we can recoup this cost of approximately $4K. It sucks, but is what it is. It's why it can be so tough to start and maintain a business. However, Tangerine Games is here to stay! Our backers - all of you who have shown us support - will NOT be asked for any additional payments. This isn't your problem. You've done your part! We just wanted to set your nerves at ease if there was any fear tariffs would impact you financially regarding PEAKS.

That's all for now! Unless something happens we weren't expecting, plan to hear back from us around the time PEAKS ships. Also, backers who have not finalized their pledges (paid shipping/VAT and giving us an address) can still do so. However, no changes can be made to actual pledges.

Please let me know if you have any questions. Thanks!
