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!

Boats Are Still Moving Along

Hello Climbers!

I received a few requests via Kickstarter that backers wanted an update on PEAKS. This will be brief just to demonstrate we aren't the type of publisher to "dine and dash" and you WILL get your games:)

VFI is continuing to send games to local fulfillment locations in Asia and some are still in consolidation. In order to send product at an affordable rate for these larger HUBs, freight needs to be combined with other projects before it leaves. This is why India and South Africa still haven't left VFI. Please continue to monitor this site.

US/CA: I was waiting to post an update when I received tracking information for the US/CA freight, but I'm not sure when I'll receive that. No news is good news when it comes to freight. This means the boat is still above water:) We are just waiting for confirmation from our team. Nothing to be worried about.

UK/EU/ROW: The boat is turning the corner and isn't that far from Greece. Take a look!

AU/NZ: I received this message from Aetherworks about 4 days ago on Wednesday: "Peaks is ready to go, we should be starting shipping for this project next week, looking forward to getting started with this." So close!

HUBs have been paid and they are all prepping boxes for when your games arrive! As of now, with the tariffs sitting at 30% when games are imported to the US, we will not be needing to ask for additional funds from US backers. You all have done enough and pulled more than your weight during this crisis. Again, we can't think you enough!!
