Overview

In the mountain city of Altera, the world’s conflicts are no longer settled on the battlefield, but at the Ascension Festival. Each year, the great factions gather in a shared belief: that ambition, ingenuity, and unity can shape a better future than war ever could.

Altera is a simultaneous-play, bag-building worker placement dice game. Each round, players draw and roll their dice, then strategically deploy Emissaries to shape their path to victory.

Where you send your Emissaries determines which of the three Guilds you gain Reputation with. At the end of each round, the player with the most Reputation in a Guild earns Prestige—then returns to the bottom of that Guild’s track, opening the door for others to rise.

Over seven rounds, you’ll build your engine, outmaneuver rivals, and earn enough Prestige to win and ascend to the High Council.
