Death Valley: Highs & Lows is the second entry in the Death Valley series. Its 18 cards can be played as a standalone game or combined with the previous Death Valley game to create an all-new set of 18 cards every time you play.
In this tableau-building game for 1-2 players, each traveler is striving to assemble the best mix of cards in their Journey and Scrapbook to win the game. Each turn, the active player chooses whether to add a card to their Journey row or to Rest and move cards from their Journey to their Scrapbook row. Adding new cards runs the risk of revealing too many Hazards of the same type, which causes them to shuffle away all cards in their Journey. At the end of the game, each player scores the cards in their two rows. Stars earn points, while Skulls cost the player points. Any special abilities also apply, typically earning the player points based on specific placements or conditions. The player with the highest total is the winner!
