Schwerkraft Sierra West

In the late 1840s, thousands of settlers set out westward, filled with hope for wealth and new opportunities. Many of these brave souls traveled with their wagons over the Sierra Nevada mountains to a place that would soon be known as California, the "Golden State." Players take on the role of expedition leaders, guiding their groups of rugged pioneers. Each step requires a clever mix of strategy and tactics.

Sierra West includes four modules, each with its own unique special cards and elements that create distinct themes when combined with the game's core components, offering exciting twists and alternative paths to victory. During setup, players choose a module and then lay out the corresponding card set overlapping to form a mountain. In the various modules, players harvest apples, search for gold, fish, and confront nefarious bandits. They move their pioneers along paths they create from their hand cards and navigate their settlers across the laid-out mountain.
