Roll to the Top: Adventures is an expansion for Roll to the Top: Journeys released in 2022 for 1–6 players, 20 minutes per game, and ages 11 and up. It was designed by Corné van Moorsel and Peter Joustra.
In this expansion to the beautifully illustrated roll and write Roll to the Top: Journeys, you'll take on the role of the base-game protagonist's daughter, going on a once-in-a-lifetime journey around the world. Follow the young traveler's journey through postcards sent back home to her mother, recounting her journey and relating to her mother's past travels. Try to be the first player to fill in enough boxes to make it to the top of the landmark in this roll-and-write. All players will pull from the same pool of numbers rolled on the active dice, using the values to make their way up from the bottom to the top of each landmark. Numbers must increase as you climb, so combine the values carefully! Each location card will bring a series of unique rules, mixing up play and adding to the challenge! At the end of each round, use the action die to change the dice pool and continue your race to the top! This new expansion provides new-and-improved game mechanics plus all-new illustrations by artist Horia Tundrea. This expansion with 6 maps contains 3 of the 6 maps from the expansion named Roll to the Top!: Special Challenges Pack and 1 of the 2 maps of the expansion named Roll to the Top!: Taj Mahal and Sydney Opera House. Each map with its own special rules. —description from the publisher
