Read full descriptionHide full description
Vertical Scramble is a 2+ player game for the spray wall. The game starts with 4 color cards, the player(s) use those colors to chose their start holds. Once the player(s) are established, the reader draws a color and an action card and reads them aloud (e.g., "Heel Hook Blue"). The player(s) move according to the color and action. The process continues until the player(s) fall. Good luck and happy climbing!
