Mortals race up Mount Olympus. The Fates choose who receives the gods' gifts. Beware the wrath of Zeus.
How to play
Twenty-odd layers of marble ledges lead to the throne of Zeus. First mortal to the summit wins.
The Fates draw the thread of life and Atropos snips it. The mortal whose strand is cut is chosen: they receive a gift (a card) and climb four layers.
Keep the gift, play it, or boast of it for a bonus gift. But renown makes you a bigger target, and every choosing stirs Zeus's wrath.
When the wrath is full, Zeus hurls thunderbolts. Everyone sets snares and plays gifts first, then the Fates cut the thread and the chain reaction begins. Struck mortals fall eight layers.
No one is ever eliminated. Cards, oaths, snares, and the favor of the gods decide who reaches the top.
