About this board game
Catch the Moon is a 20-minute dexterity and stacking game for 1–6 players, first released in 2017. Players climb through the clouds by carefully placing ladders in an attempt to reach the moon.
On each turn, roll the die to determine how your ladder must be added to the structure. It may need to touch one other ladder, touch two other ladders, or become the highest point.
- Roll the die to discover the placement requirement.
- Position a wooden ladder within the structure.
- Balance suspense and risk as the ladders shift.
- Avoid causing the structure to collapse and receiving a raindrop.
As more pieces are added, the ladders can shift, creating an element of unpredictability with every placement. A steady hand and a bit of imagination can help, but reaching higher also means stretching your structure—and your confidence—further.
When a ladder causes the structure to collapse, its player receives raindrops. The game ends with victory going to the player who has collected the least amount of raindrops, making every daring placement a choice between progress and danger.
With its whimsical theme and beautiful design, Catch the Moon turns a simple ladder stack into a tense, tactile challenge. Whether the structure rises smoothly or wobbles unexpectedly, each turn offers a fresh test of balance, timing, and risk-taking.
