Skull Canyon: Ski Fest - outski your opponents!

Skull Canyon: Ski Fest - outski your opponents!

Now announcing Skull Canyon: Ski Fest - a set collection and slope-hitting game by designer duo Jason Klinke and Kip Noschese!

Prove you're the ultimate skier by skiing the most difficult runs, collecting the best gear, and earning the highest score!

To get your ski on, you need to collect and turn in matching sets of slope cards. Each set you turn in lets you ski a run on the mountain, earning victory points, fame, and a spot on the run scoreboard that tracks who performed best on each run. The higher a run's difficulty rating, the more cards you'll need to collect to complete it - but you'll also score more points and earn more fame!

At the end of each day of skiing, you'll take a break at the Ski Village, where you can take bonus actions and acquire gear to prepare for the next day of skiing. at the end of the 3rd day, whoever has the most victory points wins!

Pre-orders* of Skull Canyon: Ski Fest will include a FREE pack of 3 promo Gear cards ($8 value) -- Pandasaurus Earmuffs, Fanny Pack, and Hot Chocolate!
