Catch the Moon

Catch the Moon

Roll the die – place a ladder – catch the moon!

Climb through the clouds and reach for the moon! All it takes is a few cleverly placed ladders, a steady hand, and a bit of imagination. Reach for the moon, but don't stretch yourself too thin, or you may lose the ladders under your feet. With the right mix of suspense and risk-taking, you will ascend to success. In this dexterity/stacking game with a whimsical theme and beautiful design, players take turns rolling a die to determine how they must place their wooden ladder (it must touch one other ladder, two other ladders, or be the highest point. Ladders will shift as more pieces are added, adding an element of suspense and unpredictability. Raindrops are given to players whose ladders cause the structure to collapse; the winner is the player with the least amount of raindrops at the end of the game! -BGG
