Why a skiing card game?
Ski days already feel like games. You pick a line, manage your legs, watch the weather, and decide whether you have one more run in you. Someone always wants another lap. Someone else is already thinking about soup.
Max Vert brings that feeling to the table.
You choose runs, build a hand of skis, gear, and skills, and respond to conditions that affect everyone. You can take the dependable line or try something harder. You can play for the score or play for the story.
The best part is the table itself. One player is carefully building Control. Another is holding a card for the perfect moment. Someone says they are playing it safe, then sends a Double Black anyway. The cards give everyone a plan. The dice give everyone a reason to argue.
Max Vert is a game for ski houses, cabins, après groups, and anyone who has ever said, “one more.”
