About the game
It's a warm September morning, the first day of a long-awaited vacation. You have arrived at the parking lot at the foot of the picturesque mountains. You unpack your backpacks from the car, tie your shoes properly and set off on a gentle uphill route. For the next few days you will travel mountain paths, collect undergrowth and enjoy the beautiful views. Perhaps you will be able to discover the forgotten, unbeaten paths that will lead you to the Five Peaks. After reaching the top of the mountain, add your pebble to the traditional stone tower and in the evening pitch your tents and enjoy the panorama of the mountain slopes. Five Peaks is a game about mountain hiking. During the game, you will use your own sets of cards to perform various actions. You will develop your decks to find more efficient ways to move or gather resources. Discovering new places, building towers of pebbles on top of mountains or collecting panoramas are just a few ways to gain victory points and leave the rest of your teammates behind. Who will be able to visit all Five Peaks and collect the most points? Jest ciepły, wrześniowy poranek, pierwszy dzień długo wyczekiwanego urlopu. Dotarliście na parking u podnóża malowniczych gór. Wypakowujecie z samochodu plecaki, zawiązujecie porządnie buty i ruszacie łagodną trasą pod górę. Przez najbliższe dni będziecie przemierzać górskie ścieżki, zbierać leśne runo i cieszyć się przepięknymi widokami. Być może uda wam się odkryć zapomniane, nieuczęszczane ścieżki, które doprowadzą was na Pięć Szczytów. Po wspięciu się na górę dołóżcie swój kamyk do tradycyjnej wieży z kamieni, a wieczorem rozbijcie namioty i delektujcie się panoramą górskich zboczy. Pięć Szczytów to gra o górskich wędrówkach. Podczas gry będziecie posługiwać się swoimi własnymi zestawami kart, za pomocą których będziecie wykonać różnorodne akcje. Będziecie rozwijać swoje talie, by pozyskać bardziej efektywne sposoby poruszania się czy zdobywania zasobów. Odkrywanie nowych miejsc, budowanie wież z kamyków na szczytach gór czy zbieranie panoram widokowych to tylko kilka ze sposobów, by zdobyć punkty zwycięstwa i pozostawić resztę współgraczy w tyle. Komu uda się zwiedzić wszystkie Pięć Szczytów i zebrać najwięcej punktów?
