Take it Higher! (2nd Edition) was launched at Essen Spiel 2010

‘Take it Higher!’ is co-authored by Peter Burley and Reiner Knizia. It is based on Burley’s game ‘Take it Easy’, but both authors have added their own special ideas to the original and the result is a true design collaboration.

‘Take it Higher!’ is played using octagonal tiles (as opposed to the hexagonal tiles employed in ‘Take it Easy’ and ‘Take it to the Limit’). This makes the shape of the ‘Take it Higher’ board very different from those used by the previous two games in the series.

Several game variants are provided with the game, including the use of miniature spaceships, which can be ‘blasted-off’ from your launch pad whenever you complete a scoring row in the colour that matches the spaceship. Bonus points can be scored at the end of the round, based on the pieces you have launched. The updated rulebook now includes an additional simpler way to use the miniature spaceships.

In the 2nd Edition the gold and silver spaceships are now electroplated to look a 'shiny' metallic gold or silver.

'Take it Higher! is a game for 1-6 players aged 8+ and lasts about 25 mins.
