## Description
K3 throws you into the challenge of climbing one of the world's most dangerous mountains, where survival is the main goal. Here, it's not enough to be good; you have to be the last one standing! At the start of the game, the mountain's base is filled with nine pegs, drawn randomly from the supply, which guarantees a nice variation each time you play. Each climber (you and your friends) begins with a number of tokens that varies according to the player count at the table, balancing the game well. On each turn, you need to place one of these tokens following specific rules. The catch is, if you can't make a valid move, you're out! Yes, it's a player elimination game, so the pressure is real. The last climber who manages to stay on the mountain, masterfully planning their steps and avoiding pitfalls, is the grand winner. K3 is an abstract game that combines pure strategy with a dose of tension, perfect for those who enjoy a quick and direct mental challenge. Get ready to think ahead and hope your opponents run out of options before you do!
