Earth 2053: Tipping Point
Cooperative Board Game
Earth 2053: Tipping Point is a cooperative board game about the effects, severity and counter-measures regarding climate change.
Players build a grid of cards representing infrastructure ventures and reforms together, with each player managing their own nation's budgets while trying to form synergies with other nations' projects.
The state of the planet's climate is represented as a seesaw filled with preservation tokens on one and pollution tokens on the other side. Dealing with increasingly severe disasters helps tip the scales in the planet's favor.
I co-designed core mechanics, such as the integration of disasters into the grid, and also supported content design and theming.
