About the game
Dive into a fantastic world beyond imagination. A world that stretches along the inner walls of a colossal sphere, enclosed by a cosmos of stone. A hollow world known as Thraen. Home to noble Drakhes, and home to diverse factions whose ambitions and myths constantly collide with one another. But the most wondrous sight lies at the very center of this world — a verdant planet that fills the sky, ever present yet always out of reach. They call it Beeledhan’s Eye, a supposed paradise that promises a better future. As life in Thraen grows ever more difficult, its factions form a fragile alliance and embark on a desperate endeavor: the construction of a bridge. A bridge between Thraen and Beeledhan’s Eye. A Skybridge. In Skybridge You each lead your people through the ages of bridge building. Equipped with an individual ability, you have a clear goal: Once the construction is complete, you want to have accumulated more power than the others. With the help of an exciting card activation mechanism, you collect building materials for the bridge, increase your military might, and vie for the favor of the deities. Who will achieve victory for their people? —description from the publisher

Setup and teaching time are not included in this estimate.
The catalogue lists Skybridge for ages 12 and up. This is the publisher’s recommendation and reflects reading demands, rule complexity and small components rather than theme alone.
