Description

--- "Sky Team" is a 2-player co-operative dice game where pilot and co-pilot silently manage airliner landings at global airports amid turbulence and hazards. Key mechanics include: - *Dice assignment* Silently allocate dice to cockpit spaces for balancing plane axis, controlling speed, deploying flaps, extending landing gear, and contacting the control tower. - *Co-operative teamwork* Two players exclusively collaborate as pilot and co-pilot to achieve safe landings. - *Concentration boost* Drink coffee to enhance focus and reroll or adjust dice values. - *Risk avoidance* Prevent aircraft from stalling due to excessive tilt, overshooting runways, or colliding with other planes, which ends the game catastrophically. - *Airport variety* Unique challenges at airports from Montreal to Tokyo, including turbulence. Sky Team is an exclusively two-player cooperative game where players embody a pilot and co-pilot maneuvering an airliner to land successfully at diverse worldwide airports, such as those from Montreal to Tokyo. Core gameplay revolves around silently assigning dice to precise cockpit positions to maintain aircraft balance along its axis, regulate speed, deploy flaps, lower landing gear, communicate with the control tower for runway clearance, and utilize coffee breaks to boost concentration for dice value modifications. Failure through excessive tilt causing stalls, runway overshoots, or mid-air collisions results in total game loss, revoking pilot licenses and implying fatal consequences. Each airport presents distinct challenges, heightening tension with elements like turbulence for a realistically perilous aviation simulation demanding flawless synchronized teamwork. ---
