Switchbacks
Grab your hiking boots and trail mix because Switchbacks is about to take you on a mountain of fun!
Players embark on an epic mountain-trekking expedition, blazing a trail through uncharted terrain. Your goal? Mark the path along the way and discover the most connected routes.
Each turn, you place one of your three tiles on the map and then either 1) place one of your hikers on that tile or 2) buddy up two of your hikers to save for a double move later.
Hikers only score if they are on a path of 4 continuous numbers. Do you join an opponents' trail to team up, or block their path with one of your own? Do you forgo a sure placement to buddy up your hikers for a perfect space next turn? Will that space even be available next turn?
