## Description
Get ready to face the vertical challenge in The Climbers! Here, the objective is simple: climb as high as you can on a tower of colorful blocks. But don't be fooled, the ascent is trickier than it looks. You can move and rotate blocks to create your path, using ladders for bigger leaps and your blocking stone to prevent rivals from advancing on a specific block. Each ladder and blocking stone can only be used once, so choose your moment wisely! Climbing is only permitted on surfaces the same color as your climber or on gray blocks, which are neutral. The first to reach the top wins this exciting race. With beautiful wooden components and a board that assembles differently each game, The Climbers is a 3D abstract strategy game that promises fun and challenges for the whole family. It's fast, easy to learn, yet deep enough to keep everyone engaged. Who will be the master climber?
