About the game
What you do in a play session
With a super accessible hand-management mechanic, players use cards to add or remove greenhouse gases and manipulate radiant energy. Heat cubes are constantly trapped by gases on the board's surface, and the key to success is timing. You'll need to coordinate your actions, such as triggering a 'Virtuous Cycle of the Ecosystem' to clear excess Methane or CO2, releasing heat back into the atmosphere and cooling the planet down. Starting at 7°C, the goal is to survive the entire deck of cards, inevitably heating the Earth in the process, but working as a team to bring it back to a perfect 15°C by game's end. It's an engaging experience of strategy and collaboration that brings the urgency of global warming to your tabletop in a fun and instructive way.
