Description

Cloud 9 is a thrilling game of risk and reward where 3 to 6 players take to the skies in a hot air balloon. The goal is to earn points by staying in the balloon as it rises through the clouds, but beware - the higher you climb, the greater the risk of plummeting back down. With simple rules that can be explained quickly, players of all ages can join in on the fun. Each turn, a pilot rolls specialized dice to determine the balloon's fate, and players must decide whether to trust the pilot or jump out to save their points. With a playtime of just 20 to 30 minutes, Cloud 9 is a quick and exciting game that's perfect for a casual game night. Designed by Aaron Weissblum and first published in 1999, this classic game combines betting, bluffing, and luck to create a truly unforgettable experience.
