  1. 9 out of 10

    *Edit* I now have my copy of the game and it did not disappoint! So far, I have only played it competitively on the easiest setting, but it was a lot of fun! So much potential for replay-ability! The only criticism I have and the reason why it doesn't get a 10 is due to the complexity of the rule book making it a bit of a harder sell to my friends. All versions of the game were bundled into one rule book which can be is a bit confusing at first. But once you get past that, I've had no problem convincing people to play! I was lucky enough to play this at Spiel 2016. I love a game where the theme and mechanic work well together and it certainly does in this one. The tension created by not knowing who you can trust along with the realisation that you are slowly running out of food/oxygen is just brilliant. I enjoyed it so much I promptly purchased the premium version which comes with a co-op/solo expansion.

  2. 5 out of 10

    Bought this one to fill rainy days with my no-boardgamer partner. Just a couple of games so far, maybe because it doesn’t rain too much lately.

  3. 5 out of 10

    Played at 14/2/2020 Gameplay: 5 Component: 7 Replayability: 5 Reason being rated at 5 is because the game bearing the possibilities to just eliminate one of the player due to event (due to random-ness) and the game planning is quite one way up. When you are climbing down, pretty much cock blocking or going back the same way how you go up. Secondly, there is too much reading require in my point of view and the rules are not really clear hence.

Summit: The Board Game is a survival game which, thanks to its two-sided game board and variable mechanisms, can be played competitively, cooperatively or solo.

In a competitive game, players race up and down the deadly mountain while managing their resources, building their path, overcoming obstacles, and attempting to survive their competition. Summit uses a unique karma system that allows players to actively help or hinder their opponents — but it also affects end game scoring. For a few extra points, you could share some of your valuable food or oxygen, or maybe you can afford to lose some points so you choose to cut their rope and watch them disappear down the mountain.

In a cooperative or solo game, players must now work together to overcome the mountain and survive the expedition. Summit is a game so grueling you need only one team member to survive the ascent and descent, so players may sacrifice themselves for the good of the team. The mountain has a "Sherpa Track" and a "Time of Day Track" added, as well as a whole new deck of cards. It is unlikely everyone will be returning from this expedition.

With over 190 unique cards, nearly 100 tiles, unique resource management and tracking on dual-layer asymmetrical player mats and the ability to customize your difficulty and game length, Summit guarantees you will never play the same game twice!
