Earth 2053: Tipping Point

Players: 1-4

In Earth 2053: Tipping Point, players represent countries that work together to prevent a global climate catastrophe. The main scoring happens on a physical seesaw board where “prevention” tokens are placed on one side and “pollution” tokens on the other. Filling the prevention side lets all players win (with optional placements based on who contributed the most). However, if the board tips towards the pollution side, all players lose.
