About the game
If you thought landing the plane in Sky Team was already stressful, get ready, because the Turbulence expansion is here to turn the cockpit into a true nerve-wracking test. Here, the calm is gone: you and your co-pilot will now have to deal with brutal weather conditions and technical failures that can turn a routine landing into total chaos. The expansion doesn't just ramp up the difficulty; it adds extra layers of strategy by introducing new modules, such as Turbulence, Low Visibility, and Alarms, forcing the duo to rethink every single move.

The content drastically extends the base game's replayability by bringing 20 new challenging scenarios. You'll take the aircraft to global destinations like Beijing, Sydney, Cape Town, and even the exotic Saint Martin. The real charm lies in how these new rules interact with the game's signature communication limits; you know the weather is terrible, but can you coordinate the descent with your co-pilot without being able to say everything on your mind?

Turbulence is essential for those who have already mastered the basic mechanics and feel that the original scenarios have become predictable. It transforms the experience into something deeper and more varied, turning each mission into a logistical puzzle where dice precision and synergy between players are the only things standing between a perfect landing and a disaster. Fasten your seatbelts, because it's going to be a bumpy ride and the margin for error is now almost zero. It's the perfect dose of adrenaline for those who love cooperating under extreme pressure.
