Mountain Goats

Players try to get six goats up six separate mountain tracks and score points by occupying the summit spaces. Each turn, players roll four dice and split them into groups that match track values (5–10) to place a goat on a track or advance a goat toward that track’s summit. Only one goat may occupy a summit at a time; when another player reaches that summit, the current occupant is removed and must climb again. Collecting summit tokens across all track values yields bonus cards. The game ends when bonus cards are exhausted or several summit token stacks are depleted, and the highest score wins.
