Ice and the Sky
La Glace et le Ciel ('Ice and the Sky') 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), Earth (lithosphere) and Air (atmosphere), as well as the Biosphere at the intersection of all three.
Adapted from the film of the same name by Luc Jacquet at the cinema on October 21, 2015.
