Switchbacks
Players embark on an epic mountain-trekking expedition, blazing a trail through uncharted terrain. Your goal? Mark the path along the way and hike the most paths.
Each turn, you place one of your three tiles on the map and then either 1) place one of your hikers on that tile or 2) buddy up two of your hikers to save for a double move later.
The rules are simple, but the decisions are tough!
Hikers only score if they are on a path of 4 continuous numbers. Do you join an opponents’ trail to team up, or block their path with one of your own? Do you forgo a sure placement to buddy up your hikers for a perfect space next turn? Will that space even be available next turn?
We have fallen in love with these elegant dilemmas and you will too!
- Simple ruleset to allow for very quick setup and low barrier to entry.
- Vibrant color and eye catching illustration.
- Strategic decisions and an element of push your luck.
- Quick play time allows for multiple plays in concession or a perfect option for filler, starter, or end of night plays.
- Opportunities for clever timing and placement with just a little edge that will keep you wanting to play again and again.
