About the game

What you do in a play session

The *What Goes Up, Must Come Down* expansion adds two fresh adventures to the already captivating *The 7th Continent*. In “A Prison of Clouds”, players hop aboard a hot‑air balloon, racing to escape a sky‑bound prison while battling aerial dangers. “The Veins of the Earth” sends them deep beneath the continent, confronting the darkness that threatens to consume all who dare to explore. Each scenario introduces unique challenges and new mechanics, such as fresh event card types and revamped resource management rules, while preserving the exploration and storytelling feel of the base game. The expansion boosts replayability, letting players choose between different missions with distinct objectives and rewards. Solo play remains robust, allowing a lone adventurer to tackle the continent independently, while the cooperative mode keeps the team‑up survival vibe alive. If you love adventures that blend strategy, exploration, and a healthy dose of suspense, this expansion is a must‑try to dive back into the world of *The 7th Continent*.
