## Description
Everest 1924 is a challenging solo game that puts you in the shoes of a climber attempting to conquer the world's highest peak. With just six dice, a pencil, and a scoresheet, you'll face increasingly difficult conditions as you try to reach the summit. The mechanics are simple: roll the dice, choose which to re-roll, and lock the best results to advance. But be careful—Everest doesn't forgive mistakes! The game pays tribute to George Mallory and Andrew Irvine's tragic 1924 expedition, who disappeared on the mountain. Can you succeed where they failed? In about 15 minutes, you'll experience the thrill (and desperation) of facing the world's most famous mountain.
