The best geology game ever produced, 2-5 players. It's fun and takes a half hour to play. Comes with a set of cards plus rules in a clamshell case.
Struggle to keep your mountain uplifted while weathering and eroding the mountains of other players. The deck is divided into sedimentary, igneous, and metamorphic rocks. The winner is the player who has the highest mountain, and accumulates the most material in his delta, with a bonus for fossils.
The basic rules of Erosion introduce the four player actions: Weathering, Hillsloping, Fluvial (River), and Draw Cards. The advanced rules demonstrate how mountain-building and erosion control Earth's climate and atmosphere.
Here is a narrated powerpoint presentation by the designer, explaining how to play the Basic and Advanced Games: http://www2.pvc.maricopa.edu/%7Edouglass/erosion_the_game/presenter_overview/index.htm
"An unassuming card game from Sierra Madre Games. This has got to be one of the most interesting and best card games I own. The theme may be fascinating to some and dull to others, but the gameplay is tense, thought provoking and thoroughly engaging. Truly an excellent little game that punches well above it's weight. It is rare to get such a big game from such a small package, but Erosion does it with style. Probably best with 2 or 3 to begin with, and after experience with 4, this is a deep little game with plenty of interlocking facets. Well worth a look in my view!" Giles Pritchard
"...Erosion was definitely my sleeper hit as I didn't think the game would have much in it to interest me, but boy was I wrong, this game is brilliant and it haunts my sleep. I can't wait to play it again, so much to think about and do, great choices and it is edu-mah-cational as well. Wonderful achievement!" James Smith ************* |
