Mountains of Madness

Inspired by the popular novel "At the Mountains of Madness," by H.P. Lovecraft, Mountains of Madness is a crazy creation from iello by Rob Daviau, with illustrations by Miguel Coimbra. It is suitable for 3-5 players ages 14 and up, and takes about 60 minutes to play.

Imagine yourself on an expedition to Antarctica. Scientists have exposed the vestiges of an ancient city of gigantic proportions behind a chain of - to all appearances - impassible mountains. Your goal is to help your team to sucessfully scale this mountain, and gather relics along the way. Players must cooperate to reach the top of the Mountain and then escape safely, but the Mountain has more than one trick up its ghastly sleeve. In horror, you realize that the higher you climb, the crazier your teammates become! Each step along the way, the leader must gather the necessary equipment from all other players to keep on flying.

Quick and clear communication is the key - but how will you stick together when your team starts developing weirder and weirder behavior? Will you escape from this accursed place with your health and sanity intact? Play to find out!
