Ice and the Sky

Ice and the Sky

La Glace et le Ciel is a cooperative game for 2 to 4 players, lasting for about 20 minutes. Players will really depend on each other (no one can lead the party) and that there will be tension crescendo during the part... Just be aware that it will be a question of balance between the elements of water (hydrosphere), the Earth (lithosphere) and Air (atmosphere), as well as the Biosphere at the intersection of all three.

Mix independently each of the 3 decks of 12 playing cards (1st, 2nd and 3rd generation) and place them on the table, face down. There are 4 cards sea, 4 land and 4 Air for each generation.Found on the 4 cards of each of these elements a value of Biosphere equal to 0, 1, 2 or 3.

Have the 6 benchmarks and 3 starting game cards in the middle of the table.

Mix the 6 objectives cards and 6 Biosphere objectives cards, into 2 piles, facedown on the table. Place over your Earth 4 cards ice decreasing values into a pile (the top 3 and 0 at the bottom). Place the 4 sky cards next to them.
Evenly distribute to all players 12 cards of the 1st generation.
